Time for August

Time for August, well I'd like just more time in general! Seems this month everything has happened and its crazy BUT a lot of fun! 

I've said it before how it's amazing that you go along and then all of a sudden everyone wants you and you either have to try and stretch yourself or say no to things! Well this August has been a bit like that. I have been working long hours on a film and that continues until start of September, I've had Mary Kay classes, rehearsals and extra gigs plus some fun friend times as well! I really have been blessed this year with experiences.

Last week I did an Ice Queens gig with ding productions at the Z Ward of the Glenside Hospital. Was such a great night, quirky and full of colour. We had only had short notice to pull it together so there was a lot of mad cramming and learning of songs but it was a lot of fun and people seemed to really enjoy it.

Here some pics from it!

Soul Factor Gospel Choir sang at the Genesis Pregnancy Support Inc Light of Life Dinner on Saturday night. This group do amazing work to support and provide encouragement to women or girls who were experiencing an unplanned pregnancy. It was a great night!

Coming up tomorrow night, I will be backing Lucien Byfieldt as he launches his album "Fighting Spirit". Should be a good night of rock music and all for $5 at the Norwood Function Centre 7pm if you want to come along. 



And of course I am in rehearsals for my next Musical "Two from Galilee". It is going to be a beautiful show, fabulous music and a lovely story. Tickets are on sale now. Like the Two From Galilee facebook page to keep up with everything! 

Have a fabulous week!

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 ...

Music for Mums!

Well I haven't written for a while, sorry about that! I have been so busy with trying to do assignments, work, rehearse, sing, teach its been crazy!!! anyway so Mother's Day is this weekend. The day when we celebrate the wonderful women in our lives who do so much for us and loves us tremendously. So what are you doing for your Mum this year? Flowers? Chocolates? Promises you don't intend to keep? (line from Beauty & the Beast hehe!!) Spa Treatment? Lunch cooked by you? Movies? I'd love to hear some of your ideas. This year, as it will be a tough one, the first without Alex, we are all flying to Tassie to be with my sister and her husband away from home. It should be a lovely time and the first time Mum & Dad have seen my sisters house. (For Liv and I, its the 3rd time there in less than 6 months!) Of course, as we are there we, The Raymond Sisters, have been booked to sing at the Red Shield Festival Saturday at the Bellerive Boardwalk. We are doing a 30m...

2018 Celebration!!

2018 has really been an amazing year.  When I look back on what I've actually done this year it is actually quite crazy but I've enjoyed every minute of it.  There have been times of difficulty and real stress when things didn't go to plan but God has blessed me so abundantly and really allowed me to use my gifts to share with people and to create a life that is really full of joy. So at the beginning of this year, I actually said I was gonna have a quieter year and that turned out to not be true in the slightest. But it has been amazing!  So this year, I have done Oklahoma on a Farm twice, played Princess Fiona in an SA Premiere of Shrek (plus learned to tap dance), done a Bee Gee's Tribute with my sisters, climbed aboard a Pirate Ship many times, been a Siamese Twin in SideShow the Musical, been an Ice & Fire Queen, learnt and performed many Elvis songs, sang on a Cruise Ship,  sang on the radio 4 times, perfomed in concerts, gigs, dinne...
