57 - Marisha Wallace on Cabaret, The Oliviers & Overcoming Vocal Setbacks
We're officially back in London and this week we're joined by a true queen of the West End... Marisha Wallace! Having originally made her debut on Broadway - in the original Broadway casts of Aladdin and Something Rotten!), in 2017 Marisha transferred to the West End, taking over the role of Effie White in Dreamgirls before joining the Original West End Cast of Waitress as Becky. Most recently, she appeared in the critically acclaimed production of Guys and Dolls at the Bridge Theatre (for which she was nominated for her second Olivier Award for Best Actress In A Musical). Marisha Wallace is currently starring in Cabaret at the KitKat Club as Sally Bowles, alongside Billy Porter as Emcee. On this episode of Call To Stage, Amber and Marisha talk about transferring from America to London, her in-depth research for Cabaret, navigating career-threatening vocal issues and her Olivier nominations. She also shares stories from across the many shows she's led through-out her career...
