Cheryl Taylor

Biography

Cheryl is probably best known for her appearances on television in comedy shows such as Copycats, Patter Merchants, It’s Wicked, Kings of Comedy, That’s Showbusiness, Filthy Rich and Catflap and Night of 100 Stars. Even so, she continues to follow her first love the musical theatre. Appearances in London’s West End include; The Mikado, Side by Side by Sondheim, Elvis – the Musical and the non-singing role of Mary McGinty the wayward convent girl in the hit play Once a Catholic. When the showbiz revue Wicked Lips opened at the Donmar Warehouse, Covent Garden, Cheryl’s affectionate but controversial mimicry of stars such as Julie Andrews, Bonnie Langford and Sarah Brightman, led directly to an appearance at the Edinburgh Festival, and a guest spot with Vince Hill in his Radio 2 series Solid Gold Music. Recently Cheryl made a return visit to the studios of Radio 2 when she was asked to partner the impressionist Johnny More in an hour-long variety show special.
