My friend Carol Sloman, who has died aged 66 of cancer, was a musician, actor, singer-songwriter and theatre director who took her array of talents to London’s West End, as well as a series of regional theatres.
Perhaps her best known role was as Cynthia Lennon in the award-winning musical Lennon at the Astoria theatre in London (1985-86), in which she also played several other roles and seven different instruments, prompting one audience member within my earshot to exclaim: “Is there anything that girl can’t do?’
