Last week I had the privilege to perform a painted piece on stage for the first time, alongside an orchestra in Sydney: the Australian Ensemble and with @mitchriley.opera.theatre at Sir John Clancy Auditorium. It was a blast painting a work so big and within a time frame to an audience - thanks to @michael_hankin_ set designer, for including me. And many thanks also to Imara Savage, director. Performance unit team, (Eleasha @henry_the_cockalier , Sonia, Skye and Maggie)

Amazing images !! 📷 Thank you @fourminutestomidnight
Last Saturday was the most ambitious Australia Ensemble show I have produced for stage for UNSW and one heck of a ride.
For the past three months, it has been utterly consuming and for all the right reasons. The place where creative minds meet is where my lights switch on, and boy were the lights bright these last few months.
We were very fortunate to be in the hands of the most incredible partnership of artists: Director Imara Savage, Set and Costume Designer Michael Hankin, visual artist Leon Bowers and the incredible artistic collaborator and actor Mitch Reily. All alongside our leading musicians.
Huge thanks to my team Maggie Pang and Skye Beker, Sam Gray and to Sonia Maddock for trusting me with this epic show: The Soldier's Tale. It took an absolute herculean effort by all - and I am so grateful for the extraordinary people by my side. What a team! We pulled off the impossible. #unsw
