McManus takes disco Mary role

Have you been wondering what Michelle McManus is up to these days?

Oh, go on, at least try and look interested.

She's turned up in the cast of a disco-themed retelling of the nativity story at the Edinburgh Festival.

And you thought her career had tanked.

Michelle's excited:

"People may be surprised that I've chosen to play this role but I loved the script.

"And I've always wanted to perform at the Edinburgh Fringe. Also, as an aspiring actress, I felt this was a great challenge and would be a lot of fun as well."

Yes. Playing Mary in a nativity play - a challenge for an actor so great, most girls have nailed the role by the age of nine.
