Support Jemima’s Musical Theatre training in New York!

Hello! I’m Jemima Riley-Duddin (16) from little Oamaru, NZ. Half of my life, since I was 8 I’ve been involved in musical theatre… it’s what I love!!

I recently found out I was successful in an audition to further my Musical Theatre experiences in New York & Atlanta. While I’m so excited to take up this opportunity, finding ways to fund it all is a little daunting. My local community has been overwhelmingly supportive and encouraged us to set up this page to help make the trip a reality!
