“So happy to be back with these lunatics!!,” she captioned the photo of her with Home and Away co-stars Ada Nicodemou and Shane Withington.
While the 71-year-old has built a legacy on Home and Away as Irene after making her first appearance in 1993 – making her the longest-serving female on the soap – her roots are actually in theatre.
“I came from revue-type situations (shows) — from community theatre, all of that — I’m getting back to my roots, singing and dancing, interacting with the audience,” she said.
“I can hold a tune and I can belt-out a number, but I’m no Aretha Franklin.”
Prior to this, Lynne did appear in the Australian version of Legally Blonde the Musical in 2018.
At the time, Lynne showed praise to everyone involved in The Grandparents Club stage musical, particularly writer Wendy Harmer who she’s known since the 1980s and describes as “fabulous” and “should be the queen of Australia.”
She continued to describe the Australian musical created to celebrate grandparents in all their beautiful forms.
“It’s review style, its four people – myself included – four us turn up to the club for the day and we have a day in the club,” she said.
