Vicky Jacobs has built a reputation as the go-to person for bringing out the best in every singer — from Australia’s leading music theatre performers to the most hesitant first-timers. Her ability to inspire confidence and vocal excellence is at the heart of everything she does.
Most recently, Vicky has been the Musical Director of A Christmas Carol at Melbourne’s Comedy Theatre. She received Green Room Award nominations for her work as Musical Director on Elegies (Clovelly Fox) and The Heartbreak Choir (Melbourne Theatre Company).
As an Associate Musical Director, Vicky has contributed to some of the biggest musical theatre productions in Australia, including Hairspray, Moulin Rouge, Come From Away, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Jersey Boys, Grease, and Singin’ in the Rain.
Away from the mainstage, Vicky is passionate about community singing. She is the founder and director of Glee Club Singing which offers choirs, singalongs, workshops, solo opportunities and joyful events across Victoria and Tasmania. She has guest-conducted the MSO Chorus and in 2023, travelled to San Francisco to study with Bobby McFerrin.
Her choral arrangements are available through Sheet Music Plus and the Australian Music Vault Choir Project.
A passionate advocate for accessible and inspiring arts experiences, Vicky is the Workshop Coordinator for the Rob Guest Endowment and part of the programming team for Festival of Voices.
She’s also proud to be part of the team behind Warm Me Up, the No.1 vocal warm-up app for iPhone and Android.
