It was announced today that Lucy O’Byrne will join the cast of the UK tour of The Sound Of Music in the iconic role of Maria Von Trapp.
Lucy, who hails from Dublin, became a household name earlier this year when she shot to success as a finalist in the live shows of the TV talent show. With chart-topper Will.i.am as her mentor, and biggest fan, Lucy made history as the first classical singer to reach the final, impressing the nation with her stunning vocal range. Now, having recently performed at the BBC Proms, she makes her debut as the young postulant at The Broadway, Peterborough this December.
The highly successful tour which has been on the road from January 2015 featured Danielle Hope as Maria. Lucy stakes over the role when the tour comes to the Broadway Theatre in Peterborough in December 2015.
