| Sierra Boggess |
Regarded by Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber as “... the best, the best Christine certainly!” in Phantom of the Opera, this international award winning music theatre superstar will wow audiences with her magnificent voice, acclaimed acting and captivating personality. It’s no wonder Andrew Lloyd Webber asked her to perform Christine in the award winning and highly acclaimed Phantom of the Opera 25th Anniversary Production at Royal Albert Hall.
Sierra is also a celebrated Broadway Disney Princess, having portrayed Ariel in The Little Mermaid on Broadway to high acclaim. On Broadway, she recently finished a season as Principal Mullins in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s adaption of the Jack Black favourite School of Rock.
Sierra was to star as Christine in Phantom of the Opera in Paris, opening October 2016, but a fire at the theatre has delayed the opening. Even though the musical is based around the Paris Opera House, it is the first time the famed musical would have been staged in France. Sierra will perform the role entirely in French when the venue re-opens.
Sierra’s career has seen her honoured with nominations for Drama Desk Awards, Drama League Awards, Laurence Olivier Awards and others. She has performed in concert at New York’s Carnegie Hall and London’s Royal Albert Hall with a host of stars and music theatre luminaries including Josh Groban, Nathan Lane (Tony Award winner and star of The Producers) and Julian Overdon (Downton Abbey & Person of Interest) at the BBC Proms.
