As Tina Cross prepares to make her grand return to the stage this month in a production of Wicked the Musical, she can hardly believe it’s happening. But after three years of preparation thanks to Covid cancellations, Tina thinks this could be her finest performance yet.
“I’m so excited it’s really going to happen!’ enthuses the chart-topping singer. “I feel like I have some unfinished business to attend to.”
While she has been on an emotional roller-coaster ride with the postponements of the show, Tina appreciates how Wicked has been one of the constants in her life during a period of personal upheaval.
Two years ago, Tina’s marriage ended and though they are on good terms, in March last year she packed her things and moved to Sydney in search of some new scenery, and to help her come to grips with her new chapter.
“I needed to take myself away,” shares Tina. “I wanted a fresh look at where I wanted to be and what I wanted to do in the future. Sometimes you need a bit of rejuvenation – it’s good for the soul.
“Life has taken a few different dips and dives, but I’ve come out the other side feeling like I’m not as manic about finding the next thing. I’m more relaxed. I feel like the universe will provide and the right thing will come along.”
