needs to be something also you know also i'm attracted by the college she out of many of the roles i'm doing this is gives me a platform to perform and to be completely there with all my being. which you always are as the critics never stop writing and you're best known for your patrol of bags heroine lulu you literally owned that role for 18 years 10 different productions of it and you famously broke your nose one time in that varian. state opera performance and yet you sang on tell us about how that was actually the prime year of this and i just missed the exit of a glass wall because the lights were coming strange and i got full speed into the glass and you know it's this millisecond of it you are gone and you come back and

you just head into the right exits and i saw kill you can think of just waiting for me with a stick and i just you know the adrenaline is so high that you just sing on and then you were you have checking in the. belief leading on the why. but you check in a millisecond if you could can still stand if you see the. if you're still in balance if you see the conductor and everything was ok so when they brought some tissues on the i just you know it just went on leave one retired from that role that was a bit of a sign that it was maybe time to do something else that was in 2015 how difficult was it to hang up a role that you've had for 18 years and as you know still show up in your day to day it was not easy because it was so deeply rooted in need this rule when you do it for such a long time but you know after all these years there's also a shadow that that is left on my soul and. concerning the the role as being a woman so i decided to to let her go and to open
