Event details
Ever since the epoch-making 1991 St John’s Regional College, Dandenong Talent Quest, Geraldine and her brother Nick shared a passion for music – 2 competitive siblings with one teenage dream. But he got a “normal job”, and she went into musical comedy – could things get any worse? Hell yes!
‘The Passion of Saint Nicholas’ is a rock cabaret about following your heart, the friction of divergent paths, and keeping the band together when you lose your biggest cheerleader.
Geraldine Quinn (Spicks and Specks, The Weekly, Upper Middle Bogan, The Project) is an award-winning rock cabaret writer/performer who has toured Australia, New Zealand and UK.
