Quote:
“Manchester will be saying Wilkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome to I'd Do Anything finalist Samantha Barks in October, when she stars in the new touring production of the cult musical Cabaret.
Sam, who came third in the Beeb's most recent TV talent search show, will be playing the title role of Sally Bowles in Bill Kenwright's new touring version of the Kander and Webb musical.
She'll be starrong alongside Wayne Sleep, who'll be playing the Emcee.
Sam's casting is already proving a talking point on various theatreland messageboards, with many questioning how a beautiful, fresh-faced 17-year-old can really do justice to the part of a washed-up cabaret performer.”
