Fundraiser for Rixon

Caleb Rixon

Some of Australia’s biggest musical theatre stars will unite in a special concert for Caleb Rixon, who is still recovering from an illness that almost claimed his life.

Rixon had to pull out of appearing in the musicalChicago after he collapsed in a Sydney gym and suffered brain injuries.

The young actor’s road to recovery has been good but more rehabilitation is still needed and funds raised from the concert will help in that process.

Those appearing at the show include Caroline O’Connor, Sharon Millerchip, Kellie Rode, James Millar, Chelsea Plumley and Alex Rathgeber.

Also appearing at the event are cast members from Jersey BoysWicked, ChicagoCats and Mamma Mia.

A Second Chance is at Chapel off Chapel on Monday, December 7. Bookings: (03) 8290 7000.
