We are absolutely delighted to announce the joint winners of the Aurora Award 2025 are Sydnie Isitt-Ager and Jess Daley, both of whom starred in Military Wives the Musical.
“Sydney Isitt-Ager, as Sarah, delivered an absolutely incredible portrayal, balancing vulnerability and strength in a way that was both captivating and heartfelt. Her performance felt so true to life that I often forgot I was watching an actress at all“
“Jess Daley, as Jenny, meanwhile, brought endless comic energy to her role. Her timing was impeccable, and she gave the audience much-needed bursts of laughter in between the more poignant moments. Both women anchored the production beautifully, each showcasing different sides of the choir’s story.”
