Richard told the Weekend Argus: “It's a privilege to perform alongside my children and Dalin. Music has always been a part of our family, and combining it with Dalin's comedy makes it even more special. We can't wait to share the stage and create memories with the audience.”

The transition from music to comedy is seamlessly orchestrated to provide attendees with a rich tapestry of entertainment. Maxine echoed her father's sentiments, stating, “There's something magical about a family coming together to perform. It's going to be a day filled with surprises, laughter, and love. We want people to feel like they're part of our family for the evening.”
