Reviews
"Competing with Beadle for the diction prize was Gráinne Gillis, the Vampire Master, who had the opportunity to reveal her full vocal prowess, with vibrant and bright tones, towards the end of the opera."
'Opera Now' on 'Der Vampyr' with Gothic Opera, 2019
“Gillis – whose voice has rich, dramatic potential – [is] powerful in the title role.”
Fiona Maddocks in The Observer on The Medium at Grimeborn 2014
"Gráinne Gillis brings a touch of Katie Hopkins's brutal ruthlessness to club owner and landlady, Flora, though with pleasing timbre rather than shrillness in her voice."
Gary Naylor, Broadway World, La Traviata at the King's Head Theatre, 2018
"The final character in the story is Flora, the proprietor of the club, wonderfully played by Grainne Gillis as a business woman, hard of heart. "
LondonPubTheatres.com, Heather Jeffery, La Traviata at the King's Head Theatre, 2018
"A special mention must go to the singer [Gráinne Gillis] who took over the role of Suzuki at very short notice, so short she had to perform holding a tablet with the score. She did a remarkable job despite the circumstances - her flower duet with Bork was delicate and harmonious..."
Manuel Munoz (A Younger Theatre) on "Madama Butterfly" with Secret Opera, 2016.
"Gillis' charismatic performance....Gillis’s strong mezzo tones were even more impressive, bestowing Flora with suitable gravitas."
Matthew Lunn, BritishTheatre.com, La Traviata at the King's Head Theatre, 2018
