About the episode

Maria Venuti, the beloved Australian entertainer known for her work as a singer, actress, cabaret performer and TV personality, celebrates her 85th birthday. The milestone comes nearly 10 years after she suffered a devastating stroke in 2016 following an intruder incident at her Sydney home, which left her in a coma. Despite the life-altering ordeal, Venuti continues to maintain her spirit and has even returned to performing, reprising her role in Fat Pizza after the stroke.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
