Claire Sweeney to star in Tell Me On A Sunday Tour

Claire Sweeney has been announced as the lead role in Andrew Lloyd Webber and Don Black’s masterpiece of musical theatre, Tell Me On A Sunday, set to tour the UK and arrive in the region on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 October 2010.

Now remodeled for Claire Sweeney by the masters of musical theatre, with an exclusive new song “I Still Believe in Love”, this is the definitive version of the classic musical for 2010.

Tell Me On A Sunday charts the romantic misadventures of a young English girl newly arrived in New York. Brimming with optimism, she seeks success, companionship and, of course, love. But as she weaves her way through the maze of the city and her own anxieties, frustrations and heartaches she begins to wonder whether – in fact – she’s been looking for love in all the wrong places. @
