RICHARD WOODALL has enjoyed an extensive career in opera, musical theatre, concert and cabaret.
He has been particularly noted for the Bass-Baritone Buffo roles in operas by Mozart, Rossini, and Donizetti, where his natural gifts for comedy have been allowed to develop.
His career was launched as a founder member of the reformed D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, and he has notched up a large number of the Bass-Baritone roles in this repertoire to considerable acclaim.

Richard's appearances in 2008 include the role of the Viceroy in Offenbach's 'La Perichole' for St Albans Chamber Opera, the role of Dulcamara in Donizetti's 'L'Elisir d'Amore' for Heritage Opera, and the role of Alfio in Mascagni's 'Cavalleria Rusticana' for Chelmsford Opera. He will also be taking part in the Fingask Follies, a musical revue touring castles and stately homes in rural Scotland
