Hayley Smart won a competition on Heart Fm to have a cameo role for one night in Priscilla. We caught up with her on the day of the show, just before the start of rehearsals.
“There was a competition on Heart Fm radio to win a cameo role in Priscilla. I sung Chain of Fools as part of the competition. Jason Donovan then picked me from four finalists to win the role. It is all down to Jason, so i am very grateful to him.

I have had one rehearsal to learn all the songs about 2 weeks ago. Today is the day of the show and I’m in here today to learn the routines. So i’ve been thrown in a bit at the deep end, but i’ll get through it.
The Palace Theatre is such a magnificant theatre to come and rehearse and make my West End debut! Everyone here has been so friendly and lovely to me.
I used to work for the Chicken Shed Theatre Company about 10 years ago, so it is nice to get back into theatre. Albeit on a slightly bigger scale!”
Here’s what Hayley had to say afterwards.
“It was the most amazing night of my life. It was great to have my kids and mum watching me. I would just like to thank everyone at Heart Fm and Priscilla for making this possible.”
