Show Notes
Are we suddenly a musical theatre podcast? Fresh off of the Olivier Awards last night, we're joined by West End royalty Zoe Birkett this week!
Zoe Birkett is a vocal powerhouse, currently starring as Tina Turner in TINA: The Musical in the West End. Before this show, she was in Moulin Rouge! The Musical, The Bodyguard (where she understudied icon Alexandra Burke!) and Priscilla Queen of the Desert.
Before her turn on London's biggest stages, she was a competitor on the first series of Pop Idol and even went into the Big Brother house!
On this week's episode of The Final FronTia, Tia and Zoe talk about the transition from reality TV fame to theatre leading lady, the training that goes into major theatre roles and how she has handled criticism on social media over the years. They also talk about dream roles and major obsessions!
