🎭 Stage lights, gym gains, and gratitude for life! 💪✨

We spoke with Barry Hill OAM, a Health Studio customer and retirement living resident, about life since receiving the Order of Australia Medal in 2023 for his contributions to theatre and musical performance.

Barry’s passion for theatre has shown no signs of slowing. He recounts last year’s performances: “Last year I stage managed Shirley Valentine, played Sir Lancelot Spratt in Doctor in the House, directed Girl of the Frozen North (a melodrama) and played Dame Cookie in the pantomime Alice in Wonderland, all for Tea Tree Players.

“I think I enjoyed playing the Dame most of all as in classic pantomime the Dame works with the audience, ad-libs freely, and provides a lot of the adult humour of the production. The ‘custard pie’ sequence was a lot of fun getting four pies in the face every night and then having to refresh the makeup quickly and change for the next scene!”

Barry Hill’s story is all about energy, creativity, staying healthy, and community - a reminder that passion for life - and theatre - knows no limits.
