AWAKEN: with Sophia Ragavelas, The Musical Mentor

Full Disclosure Fridays - The truth behind the Jazz Hands with Kerry Ellis, leading lady of West End musicals

Episode 14

Kerry Ellis has fast become recognised as the leading lady of West End musicals from her starring roles in London and on Broadway. She has also achieved chart-topping success as a recording artist signed to Universal Decca with her debut album Anthems.

Kerry originated the role of Meat, in Queen’s We Will Rock You and was the first British Elphaba in the West End smash, Wicked, for which Kerry won the 2008 Whatsonstage.com Award for ‘Best Takeover in a Role’. She then immediately transferred to Broadway and played Elphaba at the Gershwin Theatre for 6 months, where she won the Broadway.com Audience Award for Favourite Female Breakthrough Performance, before returning to London for 6 months in 2009.
Her many other leading role credits include Nancy in Oliver! at Drury lane, Eliza Doolittle My Fair Lady, Ellen in Miss Saigon and Fantine in Les Miserables.

Kerry and I had the most wonderful chat about the highs and lows of the industry. How finding fitness and well-being has kept her passion alive as well as her mind and body strong when Motherhood was thrown into the mix.
Enjoy a chat between old friends laughing about those funny moments on stage when it all goes wrong!
