Cecily’s Audition Trip
Help an aspiring opera singer fund her UK audition tour.
Hamilton, Waikato
I’m a Kiwi mezzo-soprano, planning to audition for some of the UK’s top conservatoires. My dream is to perform roles in operas for a living - and studying abroad is the best way to get a foothold in this industry. It has taken me years to get the confidence to do this - but I’m finally ready! I really appreciate your help - every little bit counts!
Use of funds
This money will pay for airfares, accommodation, audition/application fees, and living costs while exploring and auditioning in the UK over two months.

A final thank-you! 4 December 2022
Dear all,
Today it the day this page *actually* closes (I thought it closed earlier - oops!!!), so I just wanted to say a final thank-you to all of you! This trip would have been considerably harder without your support. I've said this before, but you really are absolute life-savers! ❤️
To all anonymous donors especially - although I can't contact you directly, I wish I could! I have been absolutely blown away by your generosity. You are amazing!!!
As for me, I've completed 5 auditions so far, and only have 2 to go!!! And I feel that they have gone pretty well so far. I've loved visiting the different schools, working with the different teachers, and exploring so many amazing parts of the UK. I've learnt SO much!
So thank you everyone for supporting me through this huge learning curve. You rock! xoxo
