Harold St Junction is the work of Melbourne musicians Anna Struth and Cam Prestipino. We offer a variety of music services for
individuals, groups and schools. We write and independently stage musicals for
students, we offer singing and songwriting lessons, and we can provide
workshops and artist in residence for schools or community groups. Anna is
also available for choir workshops. Our musicals are available for hire.

We love music, and believe it should be accessible to everyone.
