Nearly two decades on from her meteoric rise to fame with her surprise Australian Idol win at just 16 years of age, Casey Donovan is enjoying a renaissance in her musical career. She’s on a national tour around Australia starring as Judy Bernly in the musical production of 9 to 5, attracting many accolades, with spontaneous standing ovations after her showstopper solo Get Out and Stay Out. And she won’t stay still once that tour’s done, going back on the road in September with a series of live and intimate shows in her solo tour dubbed BluesDay - featuring her favourite bluesy tracks. On Streets of Your Town Casey tells us how thrilled she is to be back on stage after the pandemic years, and how she can feel the excited energy from the audience from being together again as well. What I love about making audio stories like this, is you can hear the joy and the energy in their voice. I defy anyone to hear Casey’s giggle, and not get a smile on their face.
