My first foray into the stage came when I was at school, where not only was I an active member of the choir and orchestra, but I also took part in the occasional fashion show. Since then there have been sporadic appearances on the cruise ship stage hosting the weekly Talent Show and filling in as an extra in the all-singing all-dancing musical productions, as well as a more cerebral ‘stage’ appearance on TV’s The Weakest Link. The pole-dancing adventure is another story altogether. More recently my stage presence has increased dramatically since I became a member of Gloc, a musical theatre group in West London.
