🔥 FRINGE ZONE | PEEL STREET | TCMF 🔥
What a beautiful reminder of what can happen when we say yes to play, creativity, and community.
I’m so grateful to share the Fringe Zone busking space with Santiago from Sonomoras DJ, his beautiful mum visiting from Colombia, and my incredible partner Dale MacDonald, who continues to support men’s health through boxing classes and monthly men’s circles. Having that kind of grounded support beside me meant everything.
Huge thanks to my friends Benny and Kel for lending me the dragon staff fire toy!!!!
I’d only played with it once before deciding to perform with it 😅🔥
Learning as I danced, trusting my body, and embracing the unknown was all part of the magic.
This experience was also a personal win. I faced my anxiety around speaking in front of people, while Santiago and I both learned so much about setting up on a larger stage for the first time in his music journey. Sound tech, crowd engagement, interaction, entertainment, and how powerful it is to truly connect and inspire.
Together, we raised $400 for the Dolly Parton Imagination Library, supporting early literacy for children.
💛 $108 provides one child with a free book every month for a year, which means our creative play has almost supported four children already.
Music. Dance. Fire. Learning. Growth. Healing.
This is what happens when we move together and let our inner fire lead.
✨ What’s next?
We’re calling in community members who want to learn the art of poi spinning and fire dancing.
We’ll be meeting fortnightly in the park, and I’ll be selecting a performance team for next year.
For 2027, expect more storytelling, more theatrical choreography, more fire toys, more dancers, and more artists coming together.
My word for this year is PLAY! So watch me get creative, take brave action, and share my light with you all. 🔥✨
If this sparks something in you… you’re already invited.
DM - ‘FIRE’ if you want to join the vibe.
