Scholars' Stories, University of Leeds

An evening at the opera

On 24 October, Laidlaw Scholars had the opportunity to attend La Cenerentola by Rossini, performed by the acclaimed Diva Opera.
On 24 October, The University of Leeds Laidlaw community came together to attend La Cenerentola by Rossini, performed by the acclaimed Diva Opera. Bringing together all three cohorts of Laidlaw Scholars, the evening provided a wonderful opportunity to connect across year groups, strengthen our scholar network, and share a memorable cultural experience.
Events such as these highlight the value of the Laidlaw programme beyond leadership development, creating opportunities for scholars to learn from one another, build lasting relationships, and engage with the arts as a community.
Diva Opera is generously supported by the Laidlaw Opera Trust, reflecting the wider Laidlaw commitment to broadening access to the arts and enriching the scholar experience.
Thank you to Diva Opera for an inspiring evening of outstanding music, storytelling, and performance
