A FEW BUMPS ALONG THE WAY MADE HER THE STAR SHE IS TODAY

GEORGIE'S NEXT ACT

With four decades of being in the spotlight under her belt, one might expect Georgie Parker to be carrying an ego as she arrives on set to mark the milestone with New Idea. Yet it turns out her only list of ‘demands’ are “a weak flat white” and Stevie Wonder blaring!

New Idea has followed Georgie’s career since she burst onto screens as Lucy Gardiner in A Country Practice. Fast forward 40 years later and she has found herself in quite the pickle. Her Home and Away character Roo’s life hangs in the balance after being blown up by a bomb planted by a corrupt skincare company. It’s heavy stuff, but Georgie insists it’s all in a day’s work.

“You really only have to respond to the environment – there’s not too much acting involved … you’re injured!” says Georgie. With a laugh she adds her previous roles as both a fire fighter and nurse prepared her for the “very hot” takes.

While some fans aren’t happy about Roo’s situation, Georgie says taking time off from the show was crucial to ensure she could follow her passion for theatre.

“I need to be able to spread my wings whenever I can. I just needed to make sure I could have time out,” she says.

From roles in Scenes From a Separation and Chapter Two, to her most recent run in Rhinestone Rex and Miss Monica, Georgie makes it clear that being on stage is what makes her heart flutter.
