Any Dream Will Do’ concert at Our Lady of Fatima

On Easter Monday 2026, in the sacred stillness that follows the joy of the Resurrection, something quietly extraordinary took root. What began as a heartfelt fundraiser within the walls of Our Lady of Fatima RC Church blossomed into an evening of music, testimony, and spirit-filled artistry that many are now calling unforgettable.

The musical concert ‘Any Dream Will Do’ was, at its heart, an offering—one grounded in faith, excellence, and community. By the evening’s end, the church was nearly filled, not only with patrons, but with a palpable sense of grace. Attendees described the experience as “flawlessly wonderful”, “world-class”, and “soul-stirring”. Many were moved to tears by the emotional depth and spiritual sincerity woven throughout the performance.

The enthusiastic audience was further blessed by the presence and pastoral support of Fr Brent Alexis O’Carm, Parish Priest, whose opening prayer and quiet affirmation underscored the  sacredness of the evening.

Executive Producer Princess Lee Keith, President of the TT Chapter of the Women’s Federation for World Peace (WFWP), brought together a remarkable ensemble of local talent: Aaliyah Lewis’ Exceptional School of Dance; vocalists Wayne Harris, Patrice Richardson, Nerrison Noel, and Richard Pierre; pannists Seone Vialva and Jeremiah Jack; saxophonist Rinelle Harrynarine; and performer Patrice Inglesbirth, a WFWP (TT) member who also served as script writer and creative director. Pianist Jessel Murray added a touch of charm to the evening with his accompaniment. Each performer offered not just technical brilliance, but a true ministry through music.

A particularly moving moment came with Inglesbirth’s rendition of ‘Think of Me’ from The Phantom of the Opera, where a lyrical shift from ‘think’ to ‘pray’ transformed the piece into a tender act of intercession.

“There will never be a day that I won’t pray for you…” echoed through the church, leaving many visibly and spiritually stirred.

The narrative thread, eloquently carried by narrator Gillian Creese, guided the audience through a journey of dreams, purpose, and divine calling, inspired by the story of Joseph and his multi-coloured coat. This storytelling element unified the evening, elevating each performance into a collective act of worship.

From the symbolic passing of the torch between pannist Seone Vialva and young pannist Jeremiah Jack during the national anthem, to the rich vocals and engaging audience participation during Richard Pierre’s rendition of ‘Balm in Gilead’, the production honoured both legacy and emergence, serving as a powerful reminder that gifts are meant to be shared, nurtured, and multiplied.

Even the set, designed by Asha Newton, reflected a careful reverence, enhancing the visual experience while maintaining respect for the Blessed Sacrament. A heartfelt vote of thanks was delivered by Ethel Berkeley-Sylvester, who warmly acknowledged the performers and expressed gratitude to all supporting hands and to an appreciative and receptive audience.

What is perhaps most remarkable is that what was once spoken almost playfully, a suggestion that the show might travel beyond the Curepe parish, is now taking shape as a genuine next step. Plans are already being discussed to bring ‘Any Dream Will Do’ to the Centre of Excellence, to South Trinidad, and, God willing, Tobago.

Indeed, there is power in the tongue. What was planted as a single seed has begun to grow, stretching its branches toward new communities, new audiences, and new opportunities to uplift, inspire, and remind us all that our gifts, when surrendered to God, can bear fruit far beyond what we imagine. May all who encountered this offering be encouraged to nurture their own God-given dreams, trusting that in His time, they too will blossom into something far greater than they ever imagined.
