City of Angels has opened to excellent reviews
There's support for a transfer, but I have no idea how that fits Sam's filming schedules.

You may recall Jessie did an animated film Jack and the Cuckoo-Clock Heart - Sam is in it too as the lead Madame Acacia. You can hear her on the trailer.

and it should be her
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ej6gP7snEko


She's also done a short interview with the Guardian
http://www.theguardian.com/culture/2...-united-banksy

and had some striking new head shots done

No need for an update on what Sam barks is doing - she's provided one herself.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49vO2UGKKj4
She says she's filming after City of Angels - which may make a transfer difficult for her even if there is one.

She also talks about her fans - the sprouts

The good news is that Sam Barks has landed her biggest musical role yet . She's creating the role of Amelie in a new musical based on the film http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0211915/
http://www.berkeleyrep.org/season/15...ed-nav=seehear
http://www.broadwayworld.com/article...ugust-20150424
The other good news is that its in America .At the Berkley Rep theatre in Berkley California 28 aug -4 oct.
here she is as Amelie http://snapwidgehttps://instagram.co...20902781842486

The problem news is that its a long long way away......

She's also just opened in a short film called the Canary

Sam has a great voice, but I'm not overly keen on the song. The movie musical it's from is set in 1919, but that's not the vibe I'm getting from the song. It sounds too modern and Disneyesque. Plus, there seems to be a distinct lack of emotion from both singers.

Catchy with some wow factor may sell better than authentic period piece - just look at whats flopped recently - from here to next week onwards?

I forgot Sam's tour. Sam is doing a tour to promote an upcoming album.
https://www.songkick.com/artists/748...barks/calendar

There's a preview at St James Theatre 2 April
https://www.stjamestheatre.co.uk/studio/samantha-barks/
Literally standing room only left.

She's doing very well surviving Bear Grylls

Sam did her cabaret at St James Theatre - a comvination of songs from her album, and ones she likes. Sprouts out in force supporting her . https://hayleysprout.wordpress.com/2...-james-studio/ If you clap or cheer at the end we found out her encore number is On My Own. .Jessie's is The Man That Got Away.

There's a review, http://www.rewritethisstory.com/2016...-st-james.html

The Album is out June 10 - on her agents label
https://samanthabarks.officialstore....s?pid=RBL_PH_2

Tour is here https://samanthabarks.officialstore.co.uk/Content/Live

Sam's film schedule seems to have changes - some changed , or stayed in development, some new ones arrived.

She's currently filming Interlude In Prague http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5540194/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_1 https://mobile.twitter.com/vivelabar...512896/photo/1

Bitter Harvest is due

Imdb is no longer listing her for Caesar or a Hundred Streets. But she's now down for Chocolate Cake http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2885819/

She survived mission survive https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfsCLJy6g_8 - and should probably have won based on the final tasks
