Acting Experience

Samantha has always loved musical theatre songs because they give her the chance to 'act' the story of the song.
In "The Vera Lynn Story" theatrical biography she played Dame Vera from the age of 7 to 100.
Samantha recently starred in the new comedy musical "The Real Housewives of Codswallop".

Physical Characteristics

Meet the Act

Samantha was one of those people 'Born to be on stage'; she is never happier than when in the spotlight.
She was lucky to attend a school that put on two musical productions each year and she was in all of them.
She is a highly technical singer which, along with a natural talent for it, enables her to perform to a world class standard in many different genres from folk to classical.
When not performing she can be found enjoying her chickens, peacocks ... and emus!

Additional Information

Samantha travels with her own theatre-quality PA and her own sound engineer.
