Nowra Showgirl Imogen Clarke's new musical tells tale of how your food goes from farm to fridge

Young performers from the Albatross Musical Theatre Company JAM group performed Farm to Fridge for the first time at the Nowra Show on February 4, 2022.

Imogen, who started writing the musical last September, said she hopes it educates children on milk production.

"I came up with is telling the story of milk production, because that's what we do here in the Shoalhaven. area," she said.

"And it's really targeted towards younger children in the hopes that they will take an interest in agriculture and hopefully learn whether milk is produced."

The musical features acting scenes written and directed by Imogen and Julie Armstrong, with vocal direction by Paul Fraser and is filled with catchy original earworms from George the Farmer.

"I've got 10 kids performing, there's two of them playing guitar, and then there's singing and acting. It's really, really fun," said Imogen.
