Clare Halse is currently tapping her way to stardom eight times a week as Peggy Sawyer in the West End revival of 42nd Street.

She’s also appeared in Thoroughly Modern Millie, Singin’ in the Rain, Gypsy with Imelda Staunton, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Shrek, Hairspray and Wicked.

There are just six weeks left to see 42nd Street before it closes in the West End. Clare says she’s in denial that it’s nearly over.
