  CHRISTINE MILBURN
A native Geordie and was born into a musical family.
After graduating from Music College she began her career at the prestigious ‘Gosforth Park Hotel’ where she was learning at least 2 new songs every day, seven days a week for 3 years ! An ability that has faired very well for this supreme talent.
She left the hotel to undertake a series of contracts with BBC Radio 2, where she was a regular featured vocalist. This only came to an end when she was lucky enough to be asked to sing on the QE2. A position she held for 3 years, only leaving when the QE2 went to the Falklands.
On her return home she carved out a very successful career as a Cabaret Act and has won many accolades and awards and can be heard regularly singing on local and national radio.
She has entertained on a variety of Cruise ships including Airtours, Seabourn, P & O and Cunard.   In her 'spare time' she makes most of the company costumes. 
It is this wealth of talent and experience that she brings to Side By Side Productions.
