About
I'm very happily married to Rich and have a beautiful little girl Izzie, who are my world. I met Rich back in 2004, we got married on halloween in 2008, and Izzie joined us in 2012. My life is practically complete.
I danced from the age of 3 to the age of 12/13 yrs old, where I became a "teenager from hell" and quit! (Big regret now). but in 2003 I got into theatre, at my local Amateur Theatre company - where I have been a member ever since, been involved in many shows, including 'Allo 'Allo, Beyond a Joke, Caught in the Net and many more, I even directed "Pack of Lies" which was absolutely amazing! Such a buzz, now just waiting on the next "project" to come along.
In 2008, I joined a Musical Theatre Company, where my love for musical theatre (which had always been there from an audience perspective) came to fruition. Since then I have been in shows such as "Boogie Nights", "42nd Street", "Our House", and also done a couple of Pantomimes, all amateur, but finally got my "break", so to speak as I got the lead in my local groups panto - "Dick Whittington & His Cat" which was absolutely amazing!
At the beginning of 2015, I was lucky enough to be cast in a production of "Rent", where I also got the part of Alexi Darling, which we put on at The Crucible Studio in Sheffield, to great reviews and standing ovations!
I am currently rehearsing for Calamity Jane, which is already a hoot.
I love the #HollensFamily, both of them are absolutely amazing, but it was the lovely Evynne, that kick started my love for singing. And after a great performance doing Rent, I have now started taking Singing Lessons from an amazing tutor, musician, actor, dancer... the triple threat of theatre! - For those that know Rent, he played our Tom Collins, and Rocked it! So I am contemplating re-vitalizing my YouTube page with vlogs and maybe some little songs.
But for now. I'm just here to watch listen and enjoy.
Thank you if you got this far!

Therese Schwartz Hey Evynne! I shared this video with (another) one of my clients today. It turns out she's going out of state tomorrow to visit a very good friend of hers for her friend's 60th b'day. My client wanted something special to share with her and decided your video was it! Also, the friend felt called a few years ago to start a support group for women so she did! It's a Bible study group but mostly a chance for women to come together and support each other. How cool is that?!?! :-D

Gary McCall Love watching you perform. Music is great! Pretty intense for a love song. I am still learning how this works. We have been out of the country for a while so it took me a few weeks to view this in surroundings I can enjoy. Keep up the good work of breaking barriers and doing things in a new way.

Gail This song really keys in on my best friend. She has 4 children, she has been overweight a good part of her adult life. A couple of years ago she got down to a really good weight, she dragged me along and I lost 10% of my weight, too. Lots of working out, running, keeping track of food. THEN, she had a heart attack. SERIOUSLY!?! Anyway, she's a terrific singer, she has an attention-getting whistle that blows your ears off, and she's alive. It's her heart, it's pumpin blood. YAY!

Magnus Ahlberg Lovely Video as always Evynne. I finally started to support both you and Peter after listening and watching your music & videos for some time. I think what you are doing is a great way to share positivity, the joy of music, and just love of life :) So you got my support for a long time coming. I hope we can collaborate one of these days, cheers! xx
