Another staff member working on the Central Queensland Conservatorium of Music (CQCM) show, Garrick Jones sang in Berlin on "countless occasions" during his days as a professional singer.

And the students won't be short of guidance about the world of musical theatre, since the show's director is Dale Pengelly, one of Australia's most decorated and well-travelled dancers and choreographers. LINK HERE for Dale Pengelly's background

Cabaret will be staged at CQUniversity's CQCM Theatre and bookings are via Mackay Entertainment and Convention Centre on 4961 9700.
