Freya was delighted to receive a DYCP grant from Arts Council England to support her growing interest in composing for the stage. The grant has afforded her the chance to explore her composition practise through her theatre company Flock Theatre Makers as well as exploring Live Looping and it's function as a theatrical device. With this grant, Freya also develops Flock's next show for Christmas 2023.

A new project taking place on the Bluefin Children's ward at Worthing Hospital. Flock will gently R&D the story The Girl and The Dinosaur whilst bringing cross arts activities to young people and their carers on the ward.

The Royal Opera House's Create and Sing programme provides:

• a creative learning programme, created with teachers, providing songs for kids in primary schools across England.
• classroom-based and digital activities, with strong curriculum links, to give better understanding of singing and opera for kids, unlocking their imagination and creativity.
• teacher training, classroom films, lesson plans and resources to use in ways that suit the needs of the teachers and their students.

Freya will help recruit and build an exciting new Youth Opera company at Glyndebourne for those aged 14-19. This project will explore arts and activism and how we can use opera and the arts to activate change in the world around us.

Working with WNO and BBC to share best practise for bringing dramatic and creative singing into the classroom.

Freya will be remounting a production of Seaglass Arts' Catch A Sea Star an opera for early years families. The work will be touring the UK, Hamburg and Luxemborg.
