STAGES with Peter Eyers

‘Look What Happened to Mabel!’ - Stage Legend; Caroline O’Connor


Listen Later

The annual TONY Awards ceremony celebrates the best and brightest of the Broadway season. And I’m delighted that one of our favourite performers, who has graced the great white way, is the STAGES guest for our TONY episode.
Caroline O’Connor is one of the foremost interpreters of musical theatre in the world. Projects have taken her from Sydney to Paris to London and the bright lights of Broadway in a vast array of leading roles, that are coveted by musical theatre performers at their peak.
At 17 she won a scholarship to the prestigious Royal Ballet School in London. The discipline and routine of such classes instilled in her a fierce work ethic that allows her characterisations to be delivered with boundless energy, masterful timing, consummate skill and infinite joy.
Her career continues to reward her with great stories, mesmerising performances and a loyal audience. She commenced the year returning to Jerry Herman’s Mack & Mabel, this time in the role of Lotte, in a fully staged concert season in Los Angeles. In May she played with the State Theatre Company and State Opera of South Australia in Leonard Bernstein’s Candide and in November joins the Lido 2 Company in Paris for a 60th anniversary production of Hello, Dolly! In the eponymous role of Dolly Levi.
These performances indicate a versatility that demands an appreciation of style and technical dexterity. Confirming she’s one of the best!
Caroline returns to the STAGES podcast for a long overdue catch-up and to shed light onto her forays on the Broadway stage, in this annual STAGES celebration of the TONY Awards.
