As a self-confessed musical theatre fiend, Penny McNamee’s talents extend far beyond simply playing Tori Morgan on Home And Away.

And on Thursday, the talented singer showed off her impressive pipes by taking to Instagram to belt out one Billy Joel’s classic tunes, Piano Man.

But it was the 37-year-old’s adorable side-kick who completely stole the show – her 16-month-old daughter Neve.

“Rainy afternoon sessions with my upstaging, but adorable apprentice. 🎹💕,” Penny captioned the post.

In the hilarious video, Penny attempts to sing while playing the piano as Neve pulls an array of cheeky faces at the camera.

“It’s a jam! Ready? Where are we up to?” Penny tells Neve, before breaking into the song’s iconic chorus.

For several seconds, Neve plays the piano alongside her mum, but the toddler soon grows restless.

“What’s the problem? Oh boy! Do you want a solo?” the actress asks her daughter, before pulling her up on her knee so she can tinker on the piano from a higher vantage point.

Delighted fans took to the comments section of Penny’s post, with one even asking the Home And Away favourite to bring her musical skills to the soapie.

“I love your voice. Can Tori become a singing doctor please ♥,” they asked.

Neve’s duet with her mum sent fans into a frenzy!

Another added: “Beautiful starting her early xx ❤️❤️.”

“Aww learning early penny and you have so many talents my dear 👌🤗❤️xx,” a third noted.

Over the years, Penny has starred in a number of hit musicals in Australia and the US, including Wicked, Daddy Long Legs and The Witches Of Eastwick. She’s also an active participant in her church choir.

Penny even met her now husband, Matt Tooker, at a high school musical camp! They tied the knot in 2009 and are the proud parents to Neve and a three-year-old son called Jack.

The 16-month-old sure knows her way around the piano – just like her mum!
