Mr Eli Ball

Eli’s love for music started at a young age when he made his theatrical debut as ‘Rainbow Fish’ in a production of The Little Mermaid at the age of eight. This experience ignited his passion for the arts and paved the road for many more opportunities. Since then, Eli has performed in over 60+ musicals and has had jobs both volunteer and professional in musical directing, conducting, and choreography.

Eli made his musical director debut when he worked on Mary Poppins Jr. with a large cast of eight to eighteen year olds. Since then, Eli has musically directed Moana Jr., which received excellent reviews about the powerful harmonies and the dynamic vocal performances. Eli is currently undertaking a Bachelor of Music, majoring in composition and piano, which is his main passion. In 2022, Eli worked on the orchestrations, compositions, and dance arrangements of the 30-song scorebook of Bluebell The Musical, which received rave reviews and sold out performances. Eli’s music has been performed at venues such as the Brisbane Convention Centre for events such as BCE’s World Teacher’s Day.

Recently, Eli became the conductor of the Redcliffe City Choir and also conducted and played Keys 1 for Shine Performing Arts Academy’s ‘On the Hunt for Abba’. Accompanying many choirs and soloists for performances and exams, Eli just loves music and continues to put himself in as many opportunities as he possibly can.
