25th May 2011: Scottish Opera today announced details of their 2011-12 season, during which Paul Carey Jones will appear as the Father in Bill Bankes-Jones' new production of Humperdinck's Hansel & Gretel, conducted by Emmanuel Joel-Hornak. Performances will take place in Glasgow and Edinburgh in February 2012.

Later in the season Paul will also appear as Angelotti in the revival of Anthony Besch's classic production of Puccini's Tosca, conducted by Scottish Opera's musical director, Francesco Corti. Performances will also take place in Glasgow and Edinburgh, as well as Aberdeen and Inverness, in May and June 2012.

Scottish Opera will be staging their by-now traditional Tosca Unwrapped performances, which give members of the public a chance to see highlights of the piece, as well as gain insights into how an opera is prepared and staged. Paul will appear as Scarpia in these shows, which take place in between the full performances.

Full details of casts, creative teams and performance dates can now be found at Scottish Opera's website: www.scottishopera.org.uk
