I\u2019m grateful that I got to perform in those 8 shows, and I absolutely loved it. I\u2019ve always loved Theatre, but there is just something so special about Pantomime, especially at Christmas! I\u2019m really excited for the full Pantomime experience this year; including costume fittings, promotional photo shoots for advertising, rehearsals and of course the shows. There\u2019s something so magical about performing- I love becoming a character and telling their story, especially someone as loved as a classic fairy tale character. Seeing the reactions of the audience is something I really enjoy, especially with Pantomime as these shows are all about audience interaction and for lots of our younger audience members this is their first real experience of the Theatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve always loved performing since I can remember. I started dancing at my local dance school at the age of 3 and from then went on to train at Beverly Marks Stage School, South Essex College and live my dream of graduating performing arts college (Millennium Performing Arts) with a First Class BA (Hons) in Musical Theatre in 2020. Since then I am grateful to have had so many wonderful opportunities such as performing as Ariel in Disney\u2019s \u2018The Little Mermaid\u2019 at the Kenneth More Theatre, and had the privilege of singing a solo as part of the \u2018Redbridge Choral Music Festival\u2019 at the Royal Albert Hall in London earlier this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m excited to see what my costume, the sets and scenery will look like this year. As many of you may remember for Cinderella in 2021 we had a magical transformation dress which was an incredibly intricate and beautiful design. I loved hearing the ooh\u2019s and ahh\u2019s from the audience each time our fairy waved her magic wand and I stepped forward to reveal my beautiful blue ball gown from under my tattered rags. And of course getting to ride to the ball in my flying unicorn-drawn carriage was a once in a lifetime experience I\u2019ll never forget! We have wonderful designers who work on these magical moments and designs throughout the year so I am sure there will be some spectacular special effects and stunning scenes this year which I hope you are all looking forward to seeing as much as I am. I\u2019m very grateful to have got this role and I can\u2019t wait to experience the magic of Theatre again \u2013 I look forward to meeting you all this December!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>To live will be an awfully big adventure.<\/em><\/p>\n<cite><em>J.M Barrie, Peter Pan<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Chlo\u00e9 Holder I am thrilled to be playing Wendy this Christmas in \u2018Peter Pan\u2019 at the Kenneth More Theatre!
