Sarah Baxendale Steps Into Secrets at the Nick of Time
Due to personal circumstances, Rachael Boulton has had to
drop out of the Cock Tavern’s soon-to-open show, Secrets, at
the last minute. She will be replaced by Hollyoaks actress, Sarah Baxendale, in
the production which runs from 17 November to 5 December at the Kilburn
theatre.
Secrets is a devised piece in which the
eight cast members each reveal secrets from their own lives. These individual
stories have been woven into a narrative by the dramaturg Hamish
MacDougall; since the script is already completed, rather than drawing on
aspects of her own life, Baxendale will take over Boulton’s ‘secret’.

Baxendale is best known for playing the role of Ellie
Hunter on Hollyoaks between 2002 and 2005. Her bad girl character married
serial killer Toby Mills and was subsequently disowned by her family. Since
that time, Baxendale’s television work has included roles in
Coronation Street and Doctors.
Secrets will be Baxendale’s first stage appearance since
HullTruck Theatre’s Wrestling
Mad in 2005.
