She was who I was…… she felt what I felt………. She was me!’
Cassidy starred in her role of Carole King for the televised Royal Variety performance at the London Palladium and once again, received major reviews from the worlds press.
Following Covid lockdown, Cassidy was honoured to open the West End theatre production of the Mousetrap playing Molly Ralston for a two-month run in the world’s longest running show.
