ABOUT BERNADETTE ROBINSON
Bernadette Robinson’s acclaimed performances in multiple sell-out seasons of the one-woman musical plays Songs For Nobodies and Pennsylvania Avenue have confirmed her standing as one of Australia’s leading singer/actresses.
Together with eventual winner Cate Blanchett, Bernadette was nominated for a Helpmann Award (Australia’s Olivier Awards) in 2012 as Best Female Actor in a Play.
Bernadette played the role of Beatrice in Nick Enright and Terry Clarke’s The Venetian Twins, and has appeared in lead roles with Chamber Made Opera and Wellington City Opera. She is a familiar figure on Australian concert stages, having given sell-out concerts at Sydney Opera House, Adelaide Festival Centre, Melbourne Recital Centre, Hamer Hall, and Queensland Performing Arts Centre.
In 2013, Bernadette recorded performances for a new cable TV show and CD called Studio at The Memo. Hosted by Australian rock star Tim Rogers, the series featured leading performers from Australia and overseas, including Rogers, Martha Wainwright, Tex Perkins and Kate Miller-Heidke.
Bernadette studied voice with the legendary Dame Joan Hammond at Victorian College of the Arts before embarking on her professional career in productions of The Pirates of Penzance and Cats. She presented her earlier solo shows You Might As Well Live, Calling All Angels and Patsy Cline: Her Songs, Her Story around Australia to critical and audience acclaim.
In addition to her one-woman shows, Bernadette has had great success performing at high profile events for large corporates across Australia and (singing in English and in local languages) in Tokyo, Beijing (during the 2008 Olympic Games), Shanghai (during the 2010 World Expo), Hong Kong, Macau, Buenos Aires, Singapore, Paris, New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Toronto.
