Biography taken from 2008 (The Pirates of Penzance) programme:

Twelve years ago, in her first show with Edinburgh G & S, Fiona played Casilda in The Gondoliers. As part of the Ducal Party, which is rarely on stage with the chorus, it felt a rather ‘detached’ introduction to the company. This year she has come full circle and feels much more a part of the action playing the lively and vivacious Gianetta.

She is having great fun with her fellow contadine singing the sunny Italian music and being whirled round the stage in the sparkling Cachucha (although with all the energy required she feels that perhaps she should have been playing this part twelve years ago!) Previous roles with Edinburgh G & S have included Yum-Yum in The Mikado, Mabel in The Pirates of Penzance, Rose Maybud in Ruddigore and Eurydice in Orpheus in the Underworld. Fiona has also performed with several other Edinburgh Amateur companies and most recently played the part of Sara-Jane Moore in Stephen Sondheim’s Assassins with Alan Borthwick and Friends. Fiona also sings with her husband, sister and brother-in-law as part of their a-cappella group Con Spirito, which has so far raised over £6000 for Cancer Research.
