We are thrilled to launch season one of SOUND MIND on World Mental Health Day. SOUND MIND is a brand new series of music and conversation exploring mental health and the performing arts.
Each episode celebrates those things we love about performance – connection, meaning, purpose, engagement, sharing and storytelling, while also sharing personal experiences of mental health and wellbeing.

Hosted by Fiona Choi, this episode features Maggie McKenna and James Majoos.
Maggie captured our hearts with her recent performance as Muriel Heslop in the world premiere of Muriel’s Wedding The Musical. She has since toured America as Zoe Murphy in the hit Broadway musical, Dear Evan Hansen, and – excitingly – Maggie is currently developing a new musical she has penned herself.
James shot into the limelight as Saltypringl in Belvoir St Theatre and Queensland Theatre Company’s production of Yve Blake’s Fangirls. This year James was scheduled to step onto the Sydney Opera House stage and tour the country in the title role of Everybody’s Talkin’ About Jamie when COVID-19 struck and the show was postponed.
Maggie and James have collaborated on an original piece for Sound Mind from the confines of their respective homes amidst the recent Melbourne lockdowns.
