Debbie has been General Manager for ''[[Hairspray]]'', ''[[Saturday Night Fever]]'', ''[[Winnie the Opera]]'' and for John Edward, international psychic medium.

+The partnership saw the [[Sound Stage]] being born, which also unintentionally became the training ground for many a lighting designer such as Alistair Kilbee, Glenn Duncan and the list goes on. Both artists and technical crew were given work opportunity for many, many years.
 Audiences, including corporate companies, streamed to the Sound Stage where the shows were complimented with a buffet style meal and entertainment.  But the traffic congestion to Midrand became a problem, and audiences could not get to the Sound Stage on time.   Friday nights, in particular, saw frazzled guests, sometimes arriving late, because of the traffic. “On a Friday evening we started giving our guests complimentary sherry,” says Debbie. This just took off the edge and helped everyone unwind. Two years ago the Sound Stage closed their doors, and the Lyric Theatre, with Richard and Debbie once again at the helm, opened at Gold Reef City, Johannesburg.
