Jan Renton

Biography taken from 2004 (Iolanthe/Orpheus) programme:

This is the third time Jan has performed in Iolanthe and she is delighted to be playing the part of the Fairy Queen, having progressed from chorus fairy to Leila on previous occasions. As well as performing in all the G&S Operas, Jan has acted in several plays and musicals with companies around Edinburgh. During the day she is kept busy in her hairdressing salon, "The Edinburgh Fringe", at Inverlieth. In her 'spare time' she enjoys writing short stories, and has also written a children's book about... fairies!! (and is currently looking for a publisher)? That's what happens when you do Iolanthe three times!
