Listen "Anna-Jane Casey: Leading Lady On and Off Stage"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textFor over 30 years, Anna-Jane Casey has dazzled audiences with her natural talents as a singer, actress and dancer. A true triple threat performer with lead roles in West Side Story, Mack and Mabel and Cats under her belt, Anna-Jane Casey has had an incredible career on stage starring in some of the West End's biggest shows. Performances with the John Wilson Orchestra at the BBC Proms have also led to wider audiences familiarising themselves with the star. Over the last year however, we have also seen her trading the stage for a delivery van as she delivered parcels whilst the ongoing pandemic has meant theatres have had to stay shut.In this exclusive interview, Anna-Jane Casey sat down to talk about how she has overcome the surprising challenges of home-schooling her two children as well as what it has been like being a delivery driver. We also look back on a truly remarkable career as one of UK Theatre's finest leading ladies. As we reflect over the last year, it seems certain that when theatres reopen, audiences will once again be dazzled by Anna-Jane and we can't wait.Support the show
