RecentIn the fall 2025, Sarah premiered with Neuköllner Oper in Philip Glass' 1000 Airplanes on the Roof as the Soprano singer. She has worked with productions such as Cabaret Chouchou under her stage name, Ginny Sapphire, in Dresden and Bremen and The Three Drag Tenors. Previously, she sang Königin der Nacht and Papagena with Dresdner Residenz Konzerte in "Die Zauberflöte mal anders."
After moving to Berlin in 2016, Sarah reinvented herself in the sultry world of burlesque and drag, gender-bending and colliding operatic beauty with the raw energy of queer joy. With every act, she sings live, and, like a true siren, captivates the crowd and lures you in. One of her personas, Ginny Sapphire (burlesque) or Justin Beaver-Hunt (né Sapphire, drag king), can often be seen performing on weekends in Berlin.

Auch deswegen wird die Sopranistin Sarah Bodle, deren Partie in der Originalpartitur eigentlich nur als Instrument funktionieren soll, in dieser Inszenierung zu einer eigenen Figur, zum Gegenpart der Hauptperson Mara Snip. Wie ein Alien verbindet sich... Opernsängerin bisweilen auch durch erotische Annäherung mit Mara, und hilft ihr, die Wahrheit über sich herauszufinden auf ihrem komplizierten persönlichen Weg. //
This is another reason why the soprano Sarah Bodle, whose role in the original score is actually only intended to function as an instrument, becomes a character in her own right in this production, the counterpart to the main character Mara Snip. Like an alien, the opera singer... sometimes connects with Mara through erotic advances and helps her to find out the truth about herself on her complicated personal journey.
