From her mid-teens as Shakespeare’s Juliet on the Cenotaph parapet in Sydney’s Hyde Park (an Education Week televised production) to The Bird Seller and the Ensemble in Dramatic Productions’ Sweeney Todd, Ros has acquired an eclectic repertoire: student reviews and cabarets, theatre restaurant work in California, mainstage musicals, comedy and drama.

Ros’s mainstage performances began with Canberra Philharmonic as Eliza Doolittle (Philo’s first production of My Fair Lady -1979), then Ado Annie (Oklahoma - 1980), Sister Sarah Brown (Guys and Dolls -1982), and Rose of Spadger’s Lane (The Sentimental Bloke - 1984), all staged in the Canberra Theatre. She also contributed as a Philo Executive member and behind the scenes during this time. Then followed a 1988 season (by invitation) with David Whitbread at The School of Arts Café, and performances for Canberra Rep - Sally Bowles (Cabaret - 1989), four wonderful seasons of Old Time Music Hall in the 1990s, Madame Knorr (On the Razzle - 2004), and her CAT-nominated role as Lady Markby (An Ideal Husband – 2007). A welcome return to the stage for Philo in 2014 saw Ros as Fraulein Schneider (Cabaret - 2014). And now Sondheim’s delicious Sweeney Todd! That’s eclectic!
