Producer Enda Markey said, "For nearly thirty years, Ruthie has been performing at the top of her game in London's West End and on Broadway. I'm thrilled that I get to showcase Ruthie's phenomenal talents in this new show that will premiere in Australia. Ruthie is an artist of great taste and phenomenal talent and I'm so happy to be working with her again, and with her musical director Paul Schofield, on this special project."
"I've only been to Australia once before and I had a great time singing some Sondheim, but now I'm especially thrilled for the world premiere of my new solo show at the Sydney Opera House and to visit Brisbane for the first time," said Ruthie.
