A Whole New World

So I got to do something pretty awesome last night!

I got to sing "A Whole New World" at the SACA Member's Test Match Dinner (the Ashes Dinner before the second Ashes series in Adelaide) in front of a lot of well known people with the special guest being Sir Tim Rice!!

Now, I love my Disney and never throw up a chance to be a Princess but to sing that song in front of the person who wrote the words (and won an Academy Award for it) is a little crazy! But it was a wonderful experience and it was great sharing it with Brady and the singers and dancers from Impact Entertainment.



Plus got to wear an amazing sparkly dress 😍 I will be honest and say it is not something I would normally wear but it was perfect for it!



I am constantly surprised by the amazing opportunities God gives me to sing and am so grateful. My life is so filled with diversity and fun.

So Christmas is just around the corner and that means that we are all busy but for performers, I think it ramps up even more. Plus add to that I am finishing Qualification for Mary Kay Directorship this month and things are nuts BUT exciting too!! So what else is going on....

This Sunday 3rd Dec, Soul Factor's Christmas presentation "Searching for a King" is on at 3pm at 277 Pirie St Adelaide. It will be a wonderful afternoon of music and entertainment for all ages. There are still some tickets left but be quick. You can book your tickets here


After Soul Factor's Concert, I then head to Burnside for their Community Carols as a soloist. So that will be lovely to share with that crowd again as I sang there last year as well. Things kick off at 6:15pm at Hazelwood Park if you want to come along.

Then after that I have some more carols services, the Gawler Carols, A Day with Jane with Emma Knights Productions - Spend Jane Austen's birthday with her much loved characters, costumes, music and of course Afternoon tea. If this sounds like its for you get your tickets here

Some more rehearsals and then City Salvos Community Carols, which I invite you to! City Salvos 277 Pirie St Adelaide. Pre Entertainment starts at 4pm and the Carols at 6pm. Free BBQ, Kids Entertainment and beautiful music. 

So after all that it will be almost Christmas! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas season and that I see you at something over this time. 

Have a wonderful 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...

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 café 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...
