PRIMADONA ALISON ENGLAND, THE AMERICAN OPERA SWEETHEART WHO MESMERIZED THE EUROPEANS FROM 10 to 101...

FRANCE IS THE PLAYGROUND OF ALISON ENGLAND. AND THE FRENCH ADORE HER!

Alison England is an American Opera living legend in Europe. Period! In one year, Alison made the cover of 6 magazines, including "La Femme Magazine", "Stars Illustrated", "Modern Woman", "Art and Style Magazine", "World Art Celebrities Journal", and "Classical Singer". The Los Angeles Times wrote: "Alison England is outstanding...time-stopping."  Stars Illustrated listed her as one of the world's 50 celebrities of the year. Louise Chambertin, Editor-in-Chief of "La Femme Magazine" called her "One of the brightest American Opera  stars in Europe." Art and Style magazine nominated her "Best Singer of the Year". Alison England currently lives and performs in France, and the French who adored her are confused. Alison confuses the hell out of them and they don't know what to do with her! Alison England, an American Opera Diva in Paris reigning over the French Opera Kingdom? C'est impossible fiston! But it is happening. She is taking France by storm.  On Sunday, Alison is the sublime Diva. On Monday, she is the fervent fund raiser for French churches. On Tuesday, she teaches voice, drama, opera. On Wednesday, she improvises. Alison is great at that; whatever comes up, and she does it well, her way. What way? Good Lord! Only Alison knows. Do you love fairy tales, Sinbad, Ali Baba, Capra's movies, the goodness of the earth, jokes? Go see Alison -if you can- she is the story teller extraordinaire par excellence. She has a way with words, for they come from the heart and her "joie de vivre". You are going through crises, you are in troubles, your car does not start right away on a freezing morning,  your cheap husband is cheating on you, Alison will be there for you; she will comfort you, cry and laugh with you, and in no time, you are back in the driver's seat!
