Shae Trownson plays Angie Cole
This is the second time I’ve been lucky enough to work with Sharren, but my first time at Cue Theatre. What a thrilling show to start out with. I am grateful to work alongside such an experienced cast. I’m used to being on stage with a guitar in hand which really drew me to Angie as a character.
Laurie Neville plays Bartley Clark
This is my first time back “treading the boards” since being on stage with Sharren in The Importance Of Being Earnest at Cue Theatre in 2019. I have been involved in theatre for over 25 years now with my most recent involvement being at 4th Wall Theatre for Avenue Q and All Together Now! I usually go for the more comical roles so Bartley has really challenged me as an actor. Slán agat.
Christine King plays Sister Eustace
Here I am back at Cue again! Back to where it all began many years ago. A few months ago I was in the Director’s chair for ‘Unoriginal Sin’ but this time on stage taking the role of Sister Eustace. When I read the script of Cradle Song, I knew I just had to audition as I found this play so fascinating, yet at the same time, chilling. Although I am enjoying playing the role of Mother Superior, I find some of the character’s actions, quite difficult to perform at times. For all that, it has been fun being part of the Cradle Song and Cue family these past few months.
Kate Hansen plays Sister Teresa
After over 10 years away from the stage, I’m so excited to be back!
Some of the parts I’ve played over the years include a stuttering checkout operator, an Irish grandmother, and a sneaky rat (that was my first part at primary school) – but this is the first time I’ve played a nun.
I hope you enjoy the show as much as we’ve enjoyed bringing it to you.
Elicia-May Hitchcock plays Hahana Moses
I am Taranaki born and raised, and live in Inglewood with my 3 children. I have been involved in several shows with Stratford On Stage, NPOS and NP Little Theatre. Notable prior show credits include the Australasian Premiere of Sister Act (2016 – NPOS), Mary Poppins (2017 – NPOS), Les Miserables (2018 – NPOS) Priscilla Queen Of The Desert (2019 – NPOS), Avenue Q (2021 – 4th Wall Theatre) All Together Now (2021 – 4th Wall Theatre). I have also been involved with Video Projects for the Taranaki Civil Defence and most recently as ‘’Rosie’’ for the NPDC Recycling Videos.
This is my first appearance on the Cue Theatre stage, I look forward to working under the direction of Sharren Read and alongside fellow cast members and crew.
Michelle Brougham plays Briar Faith
I am ecstatic to be back once again at Cue Theatre, previously featuring in Like a Virgin and The Importance of being Earnest.
I am loving being able to have the challenge of a new genre and being a bit more spooky than usual.
I am so lucky to be acting alongside such an incredible cast and am loving seeing their incredible talents flourish.
