In these early years Mirra gained a vast array of credits and experiences including; commercials, voice over work, modelling work, television appearances, and live performances at major Australian festivals such as Moomba and The Melbourne Show. These experiences paved the way for leading roles in theatre productions such as Michael Gow’s ‘Away’, Oklahoma, Gigi, Sweet Charity and South Pacific, to name a few.

Having gained a coveted place at the prestigious Victorian College of the Arts, Mirra completed a Bachelor of Music Performance with Honours, and soon received the Murray Vagg Vocal Scholarship singing arias from opera. Through this time there were many guest appearances; as soloist with orchestra at a series of Bach Cantata’s (2001), at the State Theatre of Victoria, the Melbourne Concert Hall, as part of the Shakespeare festival (2003), and return performances at the exclusive Athenaeum club on Collins (2000).
