1. "Le Jazz Hot" from Victor Victoria

A brilliant film and a part I’ve always wanted to play! This song is genius, catchy and just makes me wanna sing and dance every time I hear it.

2. "All That Jazz" from Chicago

I’m lucky enough to have played Roxie Hart in Chicago but I never got to sing this song. It’s such an iconic showtune that I’ve grown up listening to.

3. "Jellicle Ball" from Cats

This musical was one of the first shows I saw at ten years-old, it was incredible. The music is wonderful and the opening song, just amazing!

4. "Nothing" from A Chorus Line

I played Morales at the Sheffield Crucible and loved singing this song! It had been an audition piece favourite after leaving college. I couldn’t believe it when I got this part, it was a 'pinch me' moment!

5. "Gimme Gimme" from Thoroughly Modern Millie

I’m currently playing Millie on tour with this wonderful show and I get to sing this wonderful song every night. It’s another pinch myself moment as it’s just me on stage – it terrifies me if I think of it too much!
