Cherie is Kicking Goals in South Burnett

Cr Linda Little, Deputy Mayor Danita Potter & I met an inspirational lady yesterday named Cherie Watson who is working to start a disability theatre group in the South Burnett. Cherie has a disability and theatre has helped build her confidence so now she wants to help others. Cherie has the backing of a not for profit group called Blue Roo based in Brisbane where Cherie got started. Anyone who is interested in getting involved or helping can email info@bluerootheatre.org.au. (Kathy Duff – Facebook)

Kingaroy activities

Our Kingaroy rehearsal today consisted of laughs, chats, games, improvisation and a surprising round of naughts and crosses (instigated by our very own Robin).

We are so proud of our South Burnett actors, who continue to grow and embrace new experiences.

Well done!!! 💙🦘🥰
