Hi all,
Those that didn't attend the DIVA Awards last night in Sydney, you missed out on a fun night!
I was lucky enough to have 4 nominations for awards:
1. Choreographer of the Year
2. Best Show - Cast 4 and over (Masquerade: A Dirty Masked Affair)
3. Costume Design of the Year
4. DIVA Variety Award (Pink Street: Live and Gay)
I was not expecting to be nominated for 4(!) awards, so it in itself was a wonderful surprise! While performing as a "Drag Dancer" in the background of the awards ceremony however, I was surprised as my name was called out as the winner! I raced - shocked! - to the podium to receive the DIVA for..
*** CHOREOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR for 2007 ***
Hooray! My first individual award! Very special...
This was very exciting and completely unexpected - so my speech wasn't prepared at all! My thanks to the girls and guys that I work with, the venues I work for, my dance teachers and lecturers over the years, and of course to my partner for putting up with me creating my dance sequences for shows in our bedroom!!
I'm looking forward to working hard again this next year with my fellow performers.. So come along and support our new DIVA year 07-08!

Your award was very very very much deserved. You are a treat to work with and a very creative and patient choreographer - two things I love!
