A BIT ABOUT US

Anam Cara Productions was founded on 16 February 2020 by Sean Fagan, with some help from his wife Nikki Fagan.

​

There are so many amazing and talented people in the theatre world and when setting up a theatre company, we wanted a name that reflected the friendships we have gained over the years. ‘Anam Cara’ means ‘soul friend’ in Irish, which is particularly meaningful for us as a husband and wife team who met through music.

​

Sean is originally from Kildare in Ireland, and has been in many productions in both Ireland and Australia in a variety of roles on and off the stage. He has achieved Grade 8 at the Royal Irish Academy of Music for Musical Theatre Singing, as well as a FETAC Level 5 Music qualification at the Carlow Institute of Further Education.

​

Nikki and Sean first met at Ignite Choir in Sherwood, a few weeks after Sean arrived in Australia. Sean introduced Nikki to community theatre as a flautist, then as part of the ensemble, and her love for musical theatre has only grown since then.
