It was announced today that leading Australian theatre producer John Frost and Opera Australia’s Artistic Director Lyndon Terracini have been awarded an AM (Member in the General Division) in the Queen’s Birthday Honours.

Previously awarded an OAM in 1999, Frost has this year been upgraded to an AM for “significant service in the performing arts, and as a supporter of industry personnel.”
Lyndon Terracini was awarded the AM for “significant service in the performing arts as an opera performer, director and administrator.”
