I'd done stage musicals for quite a few years, starting with 'Grease' in Auckland.
My first assignment was a curtain-puller for 'The Curious Savage.'
I love a beautiful gown on stage, and luckily I've been fortunate to wear some amazing dresses.
I was pretty new to the Broadway world once I began working in it. I hadn't really grown up being too aware of that many shows or that many actors in shows. I was always obsessed with Judy Garland, though.
For a few years, there were three shows running on Broadway that I had all opened: 'Chicago,' 'Wicked' and 'Anything Goes.'
I'd love to do Broadway. It's funny. I love it, but I've never actually seen an actual Broadway show, not even 'Hairspray.'
I have mainly come from a theatre background, I did 'Oliver' here I played the Artful Dodger and I did 'The Sound of Music.'
Dance, vaudeville, drama, movies - as a child I loved everything that went on in a theater.
I'd like to work at the Royal Court Theatre, please.
When my kids were in the school play for the first time, I decided I had to make the costumes from scratch and bought material, wadding, dyed T-shirts, and purple tights so I could say I made the octopus costume myself.
