What an amazing experience filming the new VRC Melbourne Cup commercial!
Not only did I get to work with such an ace cast and crew, it was my first time ever doing wire work. Anyone who knows me knows I’m a superhero fanatic, and doing this definitely had me living my Marvel dreams a bit (haha)!

R U OK? Day this year was next-level.
In a world-first, Richard Branson had Virgin Australia staff across the country (some 10,000 of them) wearing a splash of yellow with their staple red and purple uniforms in support. It was also great catching up with some of the RUOK? family and meeting Virgin Australia CEO, Paul Scurrah.
As always, it’s important to remember that the spirit behind this national day of action isn’t just reserved for once a year. If you feel something’s not quite right with someone you know, trust your gut, no matter what day it is. Check up on them and ask if they’re OK.
Never underestimate the power a simple, genuine conversation can have x

Beautiful has taken home five Helpmann Awards this year, including ‘Best Musical’! Wow!
From the beginning, at our very first table-read, we knew this was something special. Not only because of the incredible talent on display or the story… there was just a tangible energy in the room, framed with so much heart. What a way to kick off our final season and what an honour to be recognised for our work.
And beyond that… I’m so grateful that I get to share this experience with such a wonderful group of people. Massive congrats and love to the entire Beautiful family!

So excited to share that I’ve joined the cast of MADIBA the Musical: celebrating the powerful, inspiring life of Nelson Mandela.
Being South African-born, this resonates with me on a pretty intrinsic level…
Super thankful for the opportunity and look forward to opening in October!
