Fourways superstar headed to London

Local superstar Rachel Games hosts a fundraiser event to sponsor her journey as she has gained a place at the prestigious ArtsEd College in London to study musical theatre. An afternoon of musical theatre was hosted by Northtone Academy of Music and featured Rachel Games and Cameron Bruce.

Games, a student of the Northtone Academy, has been accepted at the leading musical theatre school in London, ArtsEd, and as a token of the community’s support and belief in her talent, they organised a fundraising event that featured students from both Northtone and the students of Noteworthy Music Studio run by Julia Gard.

Games started performing on big stages at the age of 10 after she witnessed a performance at Montecasino. “When I was 10 years old, I went to watch the Sound of Music at Montecasino. After I saw the children performing, I instantly knew that I wanted to be involved with the industry. At age 12, I started taking singing lessons from Gerrie Durrheim; he mentored me until I was able to find my feet in London,” said Games.

“The fundraiser is very important to me as my family alone can’t afford to send me to college. Gerrie has organised it for me, which I am so grateful for. The event will help me focus as it will take away a lot of pressure from me and my family, and I appreciate everyone who showed me support and I will make sure to make everyone proud throughout the journey.”
