Maureen Robertson

Biography taken from 2003 (Ruddygore) programme:

Maureene McMahon was introduced to G&S by her parents, aficionados both.  She played in school productions of Pirates, Iolanthe and Gondoliers but got sidetracked into grand opera when she went to university.  While a student, she won the Operatic Cup at the Competition Festival singing Ritoma Vincitor from Verdi’s Aida and went on to play leading roles with Edinburgh Grand Opera and Glasgow Grand Opera.  She has also sung with Scottish Opera and, as auxiliary, with various companies visiting the Edinburgh Festival.  Now the wheel has turned full circle, bringing her back to her first love – G&S.
