THREE days out from Ballarat Carols by Candlelight, the concert\u2019s bill of local performers are warming up their voices to bring classic Christmas songs to life on stage.<\/p>\n

Having starred in professional shows internationally, vocalists Jason Wasley and Sarah Landy will headline the evening.<\/p>\n

An opera performer, Wasley grew up in Ballarat, learning to sing guided by Robert Lemke.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was in CATS<\/em> that Jason performed alongside his partner Sarah, who will be gracing the stage in her new hometown,\u201d said Carols president Matt Hustwaite.<\/p>\n

During the pandemic, Wasley and Landy moved to the city together and have launched Soldiers Hill singing school, the Ballarat Vocal Studio.<\/p>\n

Landy has been a cast member in national productions of Miss Saigon<\/em>, Mary Poppins<\/em>, and Mamma Mia<\/em>, in a European staging of Starlight Express<\/em>, and in a West End London run of Saturday Night Fever<\/em>.<\/p>\n

She played the lead of Donna Sheridan in BLOC Music Theatre\u2019s production of Mamma Mia<\/em> earlier this year.<\/p>\n

Wasley was a young recipient of the Herald Sun Aria, before travelling Europe and Asia in shows such as The Marriage of Figaro<\/em>, Carmen<\/em>, La Boheme<\/em>, and Oedipus Rex<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In a production of CATS which toured the Australasian region, he performed with songstress Delta Goodrem.<\/p>\n

Other performers on the line-up include Daisy Kate Kennington, Simon Carroll, Sarahlouise Younger, Matt Faravoni, John Smith, Brittany Harbour, Vanessa Belsar, and Twilight Gyps\u00ed, guided by long-time Ballarat Carols musical director Sarah Barlow.<\/p>\n
