All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray....

Ok so the leaves haven't turned yet but the skies have been a bit greyer lately (plus I always giggle when I sing this song after the Sketch Show skit check it out here). Autumn is definitely here and as today is the last day of March we are set for a new month.
I was reflecting back on the last three months and can not believe how much has happened!

First of all I hope you and your family had a wonderful Easter. What did you get up to? Do you have a tradition that you do every year? I was asked this year as the Guest Soloist at Box Hill Salvation Army's Easter celebrations. I truly love Easter music and so it always is such a pleasure to share it with others plus I got to stay and spend time with my sister Lauren, Aaron and Bella. So I had a lovely time away and was really happy with how my voice was. I have been singing so much lately, it was getting tired but it seems it has always been conditioned :)

The weekend before Easter was Soul Factor's performances of Power of His Love. What a wonderful musical that is, such amazing music and powerful story. The audiences loved it and we loved performing it. I will admit I was very tired at the end of the day but happy and proud of Soul Factor for another fabulous performance.

So looking back on the last three months, I have to say I have been so blessed with singing opportunities. 3 Musicals in 3 months, in rehearsals for the 4th and have a 5th lined up. I've been able to play numerous characters that I love and have also had the chance to sing at other events. I have loved every moment of it and thank God everyday that He uses my talents in this way.



So here's to April and what it brings.

Keep singing :)

Happy Birthday Songs!

So I'm now 31! I can not believe a year has already passed since my 30th and all that was going on at that time. There I was last year thinking "Oh my goodness, I'm in a new age range I've hit 30" and that year has already past. Well, I can say that being in your 30's is not bad actually and if anything I am happy I'm here, yes minus a few things I thought I would have gained in that 30th year but I am happy, healthy and surrounded by those who love me so I am extremely grateful. This years birthday was a lot less flashy than last years (thank goodness because that was a lot of work haha!) but lovely all the same. It began actually on Saturday, my sister Liv had organised a breakfast and surprised me by inviting some of girlfriends to join us. The cafĂ© we went to was Harvest in Mylor, South Australia. It was really adorable and encourage you to check it out some time. We sat outside in gorgeous weather, under the tress and enjoyed each others company and...

"Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain"

I can't believe I am sitting here already a week after the opening of Emma Knights Productions Oklahoma! on a Farm and we have finished another fabulous season and I've already jumped into rehearsals for the next couple of things. But I wanted to take a moment to again talk about this show and to say how grateful I am to be able to perform like this. This season of Oklahoma was HOT!! in many ways but also "literally" haha!! The temperatures of the weekend were in the high 30's and Saturday was so humid, but the amazing cast, crew and orchestra pushed through it and the performances was fabulous. And thats not just me saying that but the audiences who came were again raving at how good it was and what I find wonderful is they all sat through it, in the heat themselves but did not complain. There is something about being on the farm, if you have never been to Four Oaks Farm in Littlehampton I encourage you to (even better if it's for a show I'm doing...

Be the Hero of your story....

Well after around 4 months of rehearsal the time has come for us to open "Big Fish" the Musical. Tonight is the Preview before tomorrow Opening Night and I am so excited to share it with audiences and bring the SA Premiere to Adelaide! You may have gathered from other posts that I LOVE this musical and the role that I am playing. Of all the lead roles I have played, this one, Sandra Bloom, is a special one. But I think that has a lot to do with the cast, production team and all those involved with putting this show on. It has been such a wonderful rehearsal period creating something beautiful and for that I feel very blessed. I get to sing some beautiful songs, be a mother and grandmother and have red hair! Plus you don't want to miss my blue Sparkly dress!! If you are trying to decide whether to come to it as you don't know the story or music I encourage you to take a leap and come along. This music had me from the first listen and the story is so full of heart ...
