Tell us about the show in 100 words or less

 This is a collection of favourite musicals and some less known. Louise with share her favourite roles, plus others, from her career. The audience chooses which musicals are presented, making each show different.

Anywhere Festival takes place anywhere but a theatre. Tell us about your venue. What is it about your space that adds to your audience experience?

A private residence in Doonan that showcases multiple levels and Louise will use them all. A church in Camp Hill. The Farrier Bar has lots of character that will enhance the feeling of wandering the streets of London, or the battlefields of Paris. One of Louise's life long passions, is to perform in the Spring Hill Reservoir. This dream will be realised with so much passion.

 What is your creative process like?

I can portray up to 20 or more different characters during any performance. I have played many, so call on these experiences and those of fellow cast members who were also in the production to present a believable and emotion filled performance.

Tell us your origin story. How did your show start?

I was born to sing. I have been told that my voice changes lives. I refused to listen to those who said I couldn't make a career from singing. I have so much passion and emotion when I sing that I my audience loses themselves.

I started this solo production because anxiety meant that I could no longer do auditions.

Who is your perfect audience member? Who is going to LOVE this event?

Those who love musicals, will love this show. People who like to be enveloped in emotion will also love this show.

Louise Winton Sings Songs From Stage and Screen takes place as part of Anywhere Festival 13, 16, 21 & 23 ay 2021, at various venues including a Private Residence in Doonan, Church of Annunciation in Camp Hill, Farrier Bar, Spring Hill Reservoire
