Five would-be West End stars from Wales are among the 24 finalists to play Nancy and Oliver for the BBC’s new musical talent show I’d Do Anything.
The three Nancy hopefuls include Tara Bethan, 24, from Rhyl, who was in the Welsh language soap Rownd a Rownd.
The two hoping to play Oliver include Gwion, 11, from Carmarthenshire, who would love to act opposite Gary Oldman.
They are hoping to be cast in a revival of the musical Oliver! And will face their first public vote next Saturday.
All five are hoping to follow fellow Welsh singer Connie Fisher who went on to star as Maria in The Sound of Music after winning a similar TV show.
Tara has just completed a nine month contract on the children’s soap which is based around a children’s newspaper round.
Her father is an ex-pro wrestler and she says her worst job was working for her father’s company when she had to load and unload the wrestling ring.
