Ann-Marie Buckle, 20, was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2.
After attending theatre arts school and various dance and performing arts classes which led to the participation in a number of productions, she started singing lessons with Ruth Sammut Casingena in 2012.
Ruth gave Ann-Marie the opportunity to participate in other concerts as a choir as well as a soloist
Under the guidance of Ruth Sammut Casingena, Ann-Marie carried on to work to develop her voice that allows her to communicate with her emotions.
Ann-Marie has recorded covers which include 'On My Way' from Disney's Brother Bear, ‘Amazing Grace’, 'I Dreamed a Dream' and 'On My Own' from the musical Les Misérables.

‘I worked with Ann-Marie as a child with flashcards and other educational tools to develop her communication skills. She has a great love for the arts and music, her father is a theatre producer and she was raised in an artistic environment. Her passion for theatre and art is very strong and she is creative and very enthusiastic.’
