- Actress
- Soundtrack
Best known for her work on stage, Stephanie Lawrence was one of West
End's stars. She played Marilyn Monroe in
the musical, "Marilyn the Legend", and was the title role in "Evita",
after Elaine Paige and
Marti Webb. She is perhaps the best-loved
"Pearl" in the recordings of "Starlight Express", the role she
originated in 1984. However, most of her fame comes from her
performance of "Mrs. Johnson" in the London revival of "Blood
Brothers", for which she went to Broadway and received a Tony
nomination in 1993. She died in November 2000, a few months after she
had been married.
