Shoalhaven Seniors have been treated to performances by musical powerhouses Rhonda Burchmore and Rob Mills at this year’s Seniors Christmas Concerts in Nowra.
Minister for Seniors, Mark Coure said the Christmas concerts had made a triumphant return to the South Coast.
“Seniors have been enjoying fantastic performances at these free concerts in regional areas
for 10 years, and this year was no different,” he said.
“These concerts are to thank seniors for their valued and ongoing contributions to making
our state the great place it is today.”
Rhonda Burchmore is known for her performances on London’s West End in Sugar Babies,
and Stop the World I Want to Get Off, and is currently starring in the national tour of
Hairspray.
Rob Mills, best known from Australian Idol, has continued an enduring career on the stage
including performances in Hairspray, Wicked and Walter in Chess. Other talent to appear
included Lorenzo Rositano and Siobhan Clifford.
Member for South Coast, Shelley Hancock said the concerts were fantastic news for South Coast residents who may find it difficult to travel to Sydney.
“The concerts are hugely popular among our seniors for good reason. They provide a great
opportunity for them to enjoy musical and variety acts from some of Australia’s favourite
artists, as well as have fun and meet new friends,” Mrs Hancock said.
The Shoalhaven Seniors Christmas Concert was held at The Auditorium at the Shoalhaven
Entertainment Centre in Nowra yesterday.
