Recently I had a light bulb moment that almost passed me by. I like to hustle and always be busy. I’m a “yes” man and I will take up every opportunity to do something that feels aligned with me. So many of my dreams have come true in my career and now that I’m looking […]
Two and half weeks in and we have show on our hands. It’s pretty amazing the amount of work that can be achieved in such a short amount of time. The dancers are dancing, the singers are blending beautifully and well the actors are making the story pop. Our executive producer sat in today along […]

Well our producer Louise Withers did warm us,” It will end sooner than you think”. A year has already passed and Mamma Mia the musical is heading into its final week here in Adelaide.
