Alicia is thrilled to be performing in Mary Poppins, seven years after watching the amazing Broadway production live in Manhattan, and almost 25 years after watching the legendary Dame Julie Andrews in the 1964 movie. This is Alicia's first performance with Free Rain since 2009 when she performed in Guys and Dolls. Alicia has performed in Canberra since 2007, her latest performances being a pit singer in La Cage Aux Folles (2014), Betty Blast in Footloose (2013) and Gary Coleman in Avenue Q (2011), all with Supa Productions, and the Navigation Officer in Return to the Forbidden Planet (2013) with Queanbeyan Players. Alicia was assistant to the director of La Cage Aux Folles and is keen to gain more experience producing and directing. In 2014, she achieved Honours in her AMEB eighth grade exam in classical singing and is now preparing for her Certificate of Performance and AMusA exams with her teacher Michelle Klemke. Alicia sincerely thanks Stephen, Ian, Nick and Jacqui for the long hours they have put into this production, and is indebted to Fraser for going above and beyond the call of duty at rehearsals to help the cast.

Alicia's second love is singing (after economics - she is an economist by trade). In 2015, Alicia achieved a High Distinction in her Certificate of Performance exam in classical singing (AMEB). Alicia is now preparing for her AMusA exam with her teacher Michelle Klemke.
