Samantha Barks

Since rocketing to fame as a finalist on the BBC’s talent show themed television series I’d do Anything in 2008, Samantha Barks has starred in some of the most loved productions on the West End stage and beyond.

Widely acclaimed for her breath taking voice and emotive power, Samantha’s heart-rending portrayal of Eponine in Les Misérables earned her an international reputation as a world-class interpreter of song. Having made the role wholly her own, Samantha was duly asked to reprise the part by theatre impresario Cameron Mackintosh for Tom Hooper’s Academy Award winning film adaptation.

Delivering a standout performance amongst a star studded cast, Samantha’s appearance saw her announced as Empire Magazine’s ‘Best Female Newcomer’ and nominated for an illustrious Screen Actor’s Guild Award.
