Theater actor Bobby Fox dreams of returning home to Ireland.
Bobby Fox will appear at Carols By Candlelight at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl on Christmas Eve.
FIRST HOME
Ireland will always be my first home. I was born and raised outside of a very small town in
middle of County Longford right in the center of Ireland. I’m also the middle child, so there’s a whole theme going on here – maybe why I felt the need to escape to the other side of the world. I came from such gloriously modest means. Mom and dad raised five kids on a shoestring budget and I wouldn’t change a thing.

CURRENT HOUSE
I live in my two bedroom apartment in Elsternwick. I have lived here on and off for over 10 years! I like. To be honest I’ve had my ups and downs here but recently I was playing ‘Don Lockwood’ in ‘Singin’ in the Rain’ in Brisbane and while it was amazing
the experience of stepping into Gene Kelly’s shoes was exceptionally stressful.
The day I stole
back from Brisbane I was so physically exhausted I remember opening the door to my house
and I was greeted with such a deep sense of home. It was one of the best sleeps I’ve had
had all year.

DREAM HOUSE
I would like to have a little cottage style house right in the middle of Ireland. Totally
modernized but maintaining its heritage with an amazing kitchen and bathroom and a large
open window facing the sprawling hills.
Somewhere near my family so everyone can
come and go as they please. I would convert the shed into a studio/gym to stay sane and
related. A place to call mine whenever I’m home.
The stuff dreams are made of.
