Today we are so excited to get to interview Spencer Britten!
Chinese Canadian triple threat Spencer Britten is a multi-talented performer with the resume and sparkling personality to match. Spencer is currently a member of the International Opera Studio at Staatsoper Unter den Linden and has previously performed with Opéra de Montréal and in the Glimmerglass Festival. This year he will join Staatsoper Berlin as a Studio artist and be performing in Ariadne auf Naxos, Tannhäuser, Rigoletto, Die Zauberflöte, Der Rosenkavalier, La bohème, La Traviata, Salome, and La fanciulla del west.
We got to ask him all about being a content creator, moving to and performing in Germany with his fiancé, his thoughts about the ongoing conversation surrounding racism and exoticism in the opera industry, and what advice he would've given himself as a young artist.
