Geoff Knight is an expert at personal transformation and his life has been one of operatic proportions; an adopted child, overweight, bullied choirboy in small-town New Zealand, driven to become one of the youngest members of the notorious 'Highway 61' bikie gang. A five year stint which saw him almost lose everything in a near-death motorcycle accident. After this life-changing experience, Geoff dared to dream a new life for himself - a dream which has led him from working as a stunt man with Lucy Lawless in Xena, to gaining a Performing Arts degree and working professionally on stage and television, to the pivotal moment of being noticed by internationally renowned bass, Grant Dickson. An opportunity which has seen Geoff rediscover his voice and realise his true potential as an international tenor.Testimonial Harcourts International Conference 2017
