This week Brenda Edwards joins the cast of We Will Rock You in the role of Killer Queen. Brenda Edwards??? I can hear you all racking your brains, trying to think of who she is.
Brenda Edwards was in the X-Factor a couple of years back. Now that you have consulted Wikipedia it’s all coming back to you. Do you also remember Nikki Evans? She is currently starring as Mrs Johnstone in Blood Brothers. And X-Factor runner up, Ray Quinn, is starring in Dirty Dancing at the Aldwych Theatre after a successful turn at playing Danny in Grease at The Piccadilly Theatre.
X-Factor graduates seemed to do particularly well in West End Theatre. Many more have followed such as Diana Vickers, who was in Little Voice earlier this year and Lucie Jones who I mentioned in my last blog, is about to star as Cosette in Les Miserables at the Queens’s theatre.
So which reality TV stars would you like to see in the West End? Is it someone from Britain’s Got Talent or would you like to see a fame hungry Big Brother contestant? My pick would have to be Rhydian Roberts from the X-Factor.
Brenda Edwards will star in We Will Rock You for a 10 week run. Discount Theatre has We Will Rock You tickets reduced to £32.50 midweek.
