Stepping Out is a heart-warming comedy following the lives of seven very different women and one man
who are attempting to tap their troubles away at a weekly dancing taught by Mavis.
Anna-Jane Casey joins her sister Natalie Casey (as bubbly Sylvia) and the previously announced Amanda Holden (as perfectionist Vera), Tracy-Ann Oberman (as mouthy Maxine), and Nicola Stephenson (as shy Dorothy). The production is directed by Maria Friedman and is brand new staging of Richard Harris's award-winning play which toured UK venues last year.
Further cast members include Judith Barker, Jessica-Alice McCluskey, Sandra Marvin and Dominic Rowan with Janet Behan, Suzy Bloom, Emma Hook, Marcia Mantack and Nick Warnford.
Amanda Holden said: "It is sad to lose Tamzin. It is ironic and, of course, in keeping with the theme of the show in many ways. However we can assure everyone who comes a fun and entertaining evening and we can't wait to get started with the previews. We look forward to Tamzin returning very soon."
