Moomba Monarchs

It’s time to roll out the red carpet and award the coveted Moomba Monarch crown to the multi-talented, musical and TV star Rhonda Burchmore.

From Melbourne to the West End, to the depths of the South African jungle, Rhonda has lovingly made her way into the hearts of all Australians. Currently wowing audiences in Hairspray, her favourite stage credits range from Hot Shoe Shuffle to Mamma Mia and Sugar Babies.

Over on the small screen she’s been a cast favourite in I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, Hey Hey It’s Saturday, Kath & Kim, Spicks and Specks and more.

Coming from footy playing, pub singing tradie roots and hailing from the south-east suburbs of Melbourne, the much-loved Rob Mills has built an impressive career across screen and stage for over 20 years.

He’s had celebrated roles in musicals like Wicked, Hairspray and Grease and we’ve seen him on screen in Neighbours, Dancing with the Stars, Postcards, Australian Idol and more TV favourites.

More recently, we’ve seen him become an accomplished presenter and author and now he’s taking on one of his most honourable roles as a 2023 Moomba Monarch alongside fellow showbiz icon, Rhonda Burchmore.
