So first Blog post here – I’ve just hit SUBMIT on my Arts Council Funding Application for an R&D for a new one women show called ‘Nellie & Me’. Focusing on the life of the famous Australian Opera singer Dame Nellie Melba, ‘Nellie & Me’ will explore her rise to fame in the 1900s & look at the choices she made between domestic duties and dreams of an artistic career.
Intertwining Nellie’s Journey with my own story and that of other contemporary women in theatre, it will give a voice to the experience of diverse female creatives, to dramatise, examine & celebrate it.
Fingers are now crossed……
