Phoebe is an award winning composer, writing music for Musical Theatre and Comedy shows, and has written three musicals to date. Phoebe’s love for composition lies in writing music that evokes strong feeling in her audience whether that be a gut-wrenching ballad or hilarious genre parody.

Phoebe is also an active Actor and Comedian in Pōneke and has a love for physical comedy and clowning behaviour. Phoebe is trained in stage combat, having experience with rapier swordfighting and hand to hand combat.

Outside of Squash Co. you can catch Phoebe in her musical-comedy duo Bugs On A Wall and doing crazy genre-parody action comedies with Comedy Gold!
