Feb 1-3rd at Q theatre as part of Auckland Pride and Summer at Q! This is my first show on home turf and I'm anxious for it! Not to mention it's my first big show since Covid and I'm hoping I'm not rusty, but I can say I feel like I've slowly started to get back to why I started doing this nonsense - so get into it.
