For the past four years, Susie Blake has been playing Beverley Unwin in CORONATION STREET. Amongst her numerous other television appearances, Susie is still much-loved for her regular roles in Victoria Wood’s AS SEEN ON TV series and various specials. Some of Susie’s recent theatre work includes playing Belinda Blair in Michael Frayn’s NOISES OFF, directed by Jeremy Sams, at the National Theatre, on national tour and at the Piccadilly Theatre and the national tour of HIGH SOCIETY, directed by Ian Talbot, playing Mother Lord.

WICKED currently stars: Kerry Ellis as Elphaba, Helen Dallimore as Glinda, Adam Garcia as Fiyero,
Miriam Margolyes as Madame Morrible, Nigel Planer as The Wizard, Martin Ball as Doctor Dillamond, James Gillan as Boq and Katie Rowley Jones as Nessarose.
