‘Annie She Booked The Tour’

At the start of this summer, we said goodbye to our Managing Director, Annie Ukleja, who had been at the heart of Miracle Theatre for nearly a quarter of a century.

It’s hard to put into words what Annie meant to Miracle Theatre – but as she steps away after 24 years, we’re going to try.

Annie has been the steady hand, the wise head, the kind heart, and the driving force behind so much of what Miracle has become. She guided the company through countless shows, tours, twists and turns – always with clarity, compassion, and a brilliant sense of humour.

Whether she was navigating the fine details of a tour budget, standing in the rain at a pop-up box office, or championing artists and audiences alike, Annie’s care and commitment have been felt by everyone lucky enough to work with her.

She helped shape not just the organisation, but the culture and spirit of Miracle – creative, inclusive, courageous, and full of heart.

Though we’ll miss her hugely, we’re also excited to see what she does next as she steps into freelance producing. We know she’ll bring the same integrity, warmth, and brilliance to whatever comes her way.

Thank you, Annie – for everything. You’ve left an indelible mark on all of us.

❤️
