Something Olivia never expected to do was perform on a cruise. Yet, post covid lockdown, when the audition came through for Kinky Boots on Norwegian Cruise Line, the timing just felt absolutely right and she is so thankful that she showed up for that meeting. Not only did performing onboard The Encore take her to Alaska, somewhere she never dreamed she would be, but it also introduced her to her now husband, Ben. They played Nicola and Charlie in the show, but in their version of events off stage, the pair stay together of course! Navigating working on a cruise ship is unlike anything else. You are living, breathing, working with a group of people in a floating tin can on the seven seas for 6 months. With the wrong group, this could be recipe for disaster, but with this cast, three international marriages came out of it! Being away from home for so long isn’t easy, and you are constantly working even when off duty, but the result is a whole world Olivia didn’t even know existed.
