Kate Miller-Heidke and Keir Nuttall on the birth of their new musical

Keir Nuttall and Kate Miller-Heidke are visibly nervous. And understandably so. It’s the day before the first ever preview of the brand new musical show, Bananaland. Partners in life and creatively, the pair, who already share a real life child, have those new parent vibes. They’re about to see their latest baby take its first steps and there’s every chance of course that it could fall flat on its face.

Back to the previous day and Nuttall and Miller-Heidke mention Phillips’ planned speech and are hoping it will help. But if they’re so trepidatious, why do it? Why put themselves through the agony?
