Profile
Michelle first participated in amateur productions with a brief spell doing Calamity Jane at Vane Tempest in 1998 – unfortunately work commitments in Leeds meant she never got to perform the show but she’d felt the buzz and there was no turning back.
On returning to Sunderland in 2001 Michelle wasted no time in joining her local society – Sunderland Amateur Operatic Society (SAOS) and performed in her first show “Evita” at the Sunderland Empire.
Subsequent years seen Michelle performing in “Oliver”, and “Annie” with SAOS, playing minor roles such as the Rose Seller and one of the Boylen Sisters.
In November 2005 Michelle undertook her first lead role, Crystal, in “Little Shop of Horrors", with South Shields Musical Productions.
Michelle joined DMTC in 2005 for their production of Titanic. She was delighted to play the part of Marta in their 2006 production of Company and has since remained in the chorus for Gigi, Noel & Ivor, Mack and Mabel and Scrooge.
Unfortunately Michelle missed out on joining the company for Fiddler on the Roof in March 2009, as she was learning a new role as 1st time mum to her and Stevens son Ollie.
Michelle is delighted to be back in the midst of it all and is really looking forward to playing the "over the top" character of Ernestina in Hello, Dolly!.
