Who says West End performers have to stick to their own show?

It's been an incredible year and six months or so for me since From Here To Eternity said goodbye to the Shaftesbury in London's glittering West End. My plan was to not be idle and dwell on what might have been.

West End star Kieran Brown (Phantom of the Opera, Wicked, Les Miserables) will be at The MAC on Sunday 13th September to officially open the Birmingham Institute of Theatre Arts (BITA).

The cast of MISS SAIGON just tweeted a fun video of the cast stretching and prepping for their performance with 'He Lives in You' as background music. Check out the video below, and see if you can spot Olivier nominee Jon Jon Briones!

Kathryn catches up with Siobhan Dillon, who is currently on tour as Sally Bowles in Cabaret.

Brilliantly barmy, deliciously dark and ultimately harrowingly hard-hitting - that's how I would describe the current UK tour of Cabaret.
