Surrounded by family and friends, stage and screen legend Miriama McDowell celebrated her 40th birthday with a Lion Queen party – “because I’m a Leo” – where guests dressed as jungle animals and lip-synched to the song Circle Of Life.
Three years on, Miriama has fond memories of the night – including the heartfelt speech one of her besties, fellow acting powerhouse Bree Peters, delivered.
About to appear together on stage for the first time in five years, the duo tellabout their close friendship – one so close that Bree flew home from Australia, where she was starring in, for one night only to speak at Miriama’s birthday.
