On top of that he has just commenced his 20th year of being president of the Bundaberg Players. Nigel is very excited to reprise the role of Javert 25 years after he first played the role. He loves that he can revisit his favourite character and bring such depth to him.

 | We caught up with Natalie Sweetapple who plays ‘Fantine’ Favourite part of the show? – Working with this incredible cast and crew. The people in this show are some of the most hard working and dedicated I have ever worked with and I have had so much fun on this journey together. Favourite show you’ve done? – ‘Pirates of Penzance’ at QPAC in 2015. I played one of John Woods daughters and got to dance with Andrew O’Keefe. It was challenging, fast paced and just so much fun. I was pretty star struck the entire time getting to work so closely with those amazing performers. Best show memory?– When I sang Memory with Marina Prior in ‘CATS’ to an audience of thousands at the Convention Centre in Brisbane. If you could play any other character, who would it be?– In this show, ‘Madame Thenardier’ because it would be so much fun and she doesn’t die a horrible death ha ha. What do you hope people walk away thinking after the show? – I hope that they leave the Moncrieff thinking about what talented performers we have here in Bundaberg and feeling like they witnessed something magic. They should feel proud to be a part of this community and inspired to continue supporting the arts in our region.

 | We caught up with Jedidah Morley who plays ‘Cosette’ Favourite part of the show? – ‘One Day More’ – my 7 year old daughter and I practise it in the car together and she does all the parts that aren’t mine. It’s usually really loud! Favourite show you’ve done? – ‘Seussical The Musical’ – I loved the music and costumes in this one. Unfortunately I sacrificed two eyebrows when I pulled off the feathers that were glued to them. They never grew back the same. Best show memory?- My best show memory is working with the very talented team of Bec Hutchins, Robyn Edgar, Leanne Hutchings and Chris Arnold. They are supportive, caring and have helped me to develop creatively. I’m so grateful for them! If you could play any other character, who would it be?- I’d like to play ‘Javert’ because he has the best lines “we’ll be ready for those school boys, they will wet themselves with blood”. I could totally nail that line!!!! What do you hope people walk away thinking after the show? – I hope people leave thinking “Let’s see it again!” Jed is proudly sponsored by Radio Rentals. ‘Les Miserables’ is presented by the Bundaberg Players Incorporated for our 25th anniversary performance!

 | We caught up with Jenn Ritchie who plays ‘Eponine’ Favourite part of the show? – ‘Master of the House’ – Every time I watch it in rehearsals I see something new and hilarious! Favourite show you’ve done? – This one! First in Bundaberg and first lead role. ‘Les Mis’ is in my top 5 shows of all time. Best show memory?- All the laughs between all the hard work with this amazing cast and crew! Especially all the sharing of ‘Les Mis’ memes! The friends I have made that I hope last a lifetime. If you could play any other character, who would it be?- In ‘Les Mis’, definitely ‘Javert’!! I think he is a fabulously strong character! Also love how he repeats his name just in case you forget it! But out of any show, ‘Calamity Jane’. What do you hope people walk away thinking after the show? – That spark of excitement and joy that I felt and still feel every time I hear this musical. It is very special to me and I hope you all feel the same way after the show! Also, hopefully a sense of pride for Bundaberg’s local Cast, Crew and Orchestra!

 | We caught up with Tim Holstein who plays ‘Marius’ Favourite part of the show? – All the scenes where we are performing atop the giant barricade. It is both intimidating and enthralling being so high up whilst performing such a high energy scene. Favourite show you’ve done? – ‘Alice21’, a rock-themed musical adaptation of ‘Alice in Wonderland’, at the Brisbane Arts Festival. Best show memory?- Doing a ballet routine dressed as ‘Uncle Fester’ in a 1920’s swimsuit, whilst serenading a ‘fit ball ‘moon’, in CQCM’s production of ‘Addams Family’. If you could play any other character, who would it be?- ‘Robert “Bobby” ‘ from ‘Company’ or I would love to be the director of a production of ‘Sweeney Todd’. What do you hope people walk away thinking after the show? – That theatre isn’t just for women. Some of the world’s most famous male actors started out in theatre and it is an amazing opportunity for males to challenge themselves.
