But having now just graduated from Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts with a first-class  BA degree in musical theatre, Jenny, of Stanley Square, Carshalton, is excited at the prospect of her first professional job.

She said: "It's a great first job. The kids' reaction to the kissing scenes aer sometimes 'oohs' and 'aahs' and sometimes lots of giggles."

The show tours until the end untikl the end of March and plays the Ashcroft Theatre, Fairfield Halls, Croyudon on Thursday November 20, and Friday November 21.

After Christmas, Jenny will also be playing Miranda in Shakespeare 4 Kidz' production of The Tempest.
