1. Patricia Yates, Tenor - Diversification of the opera industry, trans-inclusivity in opera & creating a living art

In this first episode of The Authentic Artistry Podcast, I dive into a conversation with Patricia Yates about the obstacles of the industry for queer folk and the steps that need to be taken to open up the traditional opera productions.

Patricia Yates is a tenor studying at the McGill University, Canada and in this episode she speaks about the place of queerness in opera, what needs to change to make the opera industry more diverse and accessible for ALL people, shaking up casting and the importance of the performer in creating a living art. She is a force to be reckoned with who speaks with unparalleled eloquence and insight, with an ambition to change the status quo of the opera and singing world.
