July 2011: The Claw- Cast as Ruby (7) Fascinated by the dark side of life, John, sees random connections between unrelated things. John's partner Rosie, tolerates his flights of fancy but even she has her limit. Their irrepressible daughter, Ruby, is obsessed with the claw (crane grabber machines). On a family day out at the seaside, Ruby drags her long suffering parents onto the pier, and into an amusement arcade populated by misfits. To Ruby's delight and her parents stupefaction, she plays 'The Claw' and claims a very improbable prize. The arcade misfits interpret this as a sign that Ruby has come to deliver them from an unspeakable curse. John discovers that despite his twisted imagination,when things turn proper weird, he's well out of his depth.

All my theatre productions have had singing roles. With the help of my vocal coach I am learning a range of vocal techniques and acquiring a catalogue of musical genre, from Les Miserable “Castle On A Cloud” to Miley Cyrus. I thoroughly enjoy singing and bringing music to life.
In 2008 I sang at a Charity Event organised by The Wirral Witches, (Women In Touch with Clarie House) I was also chosen to assist the host with the Grand Draw. This event was held at the Liverpool MetQuarter, pictures can be found at the MetQuarter website.

I am energetic, enthusiastic and willing to learn. I put my all into everything I do and most importantly I always enjoy it!
