McFadden daughters itching for the stage
Saturday January 10 2009
There could well be a new generation of the McFadden family heading for the stage from what we hear. While Brian spent the festive season in Australia with fiancee Delta Goodrem, and Kerry Katona was in Warrington, Cheshire, their daughters Molly and Lily Sue were in Dublin staying with their grandparents Mairead and Brendan.
And according to Brian's sister Susan, the girls have show business in their blood and can't stop watching High School Musical on DVD in Mairead's Artane home. They also went to see her perform twice in the Aladdin panto in the Olympia Theatre over Christmas.
Both Susan and brother Brian attended the famous Billie Barry stage school in Dublin, going on to achieve major success. And Susan can see Molly and Lilly Sue wanting to follow in their footsteps, especially as their mum, Kerry Katona, was also once a member of successful pop group Atomic Kitten.
Susan is now toying with the idea of setting up her own stage school. With this in mind, she is holding a special West End Masterclass today at Spin Dance Studios on the Longmile Road.
Susan won the female lead role in a West End production of Grease after winning the Grease Is The Word TV spectacular. When she returns to the UK this month, she will tour with the Seven Brides for Seven Brothers musical.
