RADIO KAKA

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

Today, I was back at the George Elliot Hospital in Nuneaton being interviewed on Anker Radio. Big BIG thank you to Alan and Anna Green who treat me like royalty whenever I’m there! You’re both wonderful!

I didn’t realise how much STUFF I’ve done since I was last there! I wrote out a whole list and everything! So everyone got a nice little update on what’s been going on and what’s coming up!

If you listened to the show, you’ll remember me going crazy over the opera coming up! If my enthusiasm was too much for you, don’t worry, I’ll be calmer onstage!.. or at least I’ll hide it better!

La Bohème is on at the Concordia Theatre in about 3 weeks! Go to: www.stanley-opera.org.uk or call: Chris Sturgess on 01455 848194 for tickets!

And check out my facebook page for more details: www.facebook.com/kirstyandersonUK

It’s all about the radio people, I’m going live again on Saturday (3rd April) on BBC Radio Leicester and shall be joined by the fabulous Lynda Smart who is directing La Bohème. That’s at 9am, so tune in!!

Much love!
