After a four year hiatus from the Hobart theatre scene Leah is excited to be back and part of this "tale as old as time!" She has previously appeared for the G&S Society as Bloody Mary in South Pacific and has performed on stage at the Theatre Royal several times – in the X Wellington Wellington X/Theatre Royal production of Sweet Charity and with Pierrot Productions in Chicago and Grease, playing the role of Jan in the latter. She was also in the cast of Hair for Hobart Rep. Leah intends not to wait for another four years before her next show!
