BiographyHistory

Theatre and film actress, singer, entertainer.

After making her professional debut in Djin-Djin (1895) Carrie Moore secured engagements with Williamson and Musgrove's Royal Comic Opera Company before accepting a contract in 1903 with English producer George Edwardes. Her high profile career in British musicals, pantomimes and variety was broken in 1908 when she starred in the Australia tour of The Merry Widow. Moore returned home several times prior to retiring in 1918, securing work in vaudeville, with Bert Le Blanc's Travesty Stars and in musical comedy. She made occasional stage appearances in later years and featured in Charles Chauvel's Sons of Matthew (1949).
