Hilary Cole and Natalie O’Donnell

Blue Saint Productions have announced today that due to illness Natalie O’Donnell will replace Sophie Carter and Hilary Cole will replace Teagan Wouters in tonight’s performance of Songs for a New World at the Hayes Theatre Co.

O’Donnell, who appeared in the Melbourne season of the same production, joined the cast for rehearsal last night and will be performing for the remainder of the season.

In what some may consider a performer’s dream opportunity, Hillary Cole is rehearsing the show for the first time during the day today. She will be performing score-in-hand, but one can only imagine that with her prodigious talent, soaring vocals and an incredible amount of adrenaline, it will be a performance to behold.

Chookas to Nat and Hilary from everyone here at AussieTheatre and we wish Sophie and Teagan a speedy recovery and hope to see them back on this or another stage very soon.
