Morag originally trained as an opera singer at The Royal Northern College of Music, performing in Buxton Festival and with Opera North while still a student.
Her career aims and direction opened up after enjoying an 18-month West End run in Phantom of The Opera at Her Majesty’s Theatre playing Carlotta, the evil Italian diva. From then Morag embraced and relished the challenge of singing and performing in a range of styles. She is married with two grown up children – a son and a daughter – one a musician the other an artist. She enjoys travel, being active, reading, entertaining friends and family company – and her two dogs, Topsy & Lola (named in relation to the show Tonight Lola Blau).
