Since 1990, Auckland born Meredith Braun has been considered one of the West End's brightest stars, originating and recording such roles as ‘Betty Schaeffer’ in 'Sunset Boulevard', ‘Lily’ in the RSC’s 'The Secret Garden' and playing the iconic roles of ‘Eponine’ in 'Les Misérables' and ‘Christine’ in 'The Phantom of the Opera'. On screen, Meredith starred as Belle in the 1992 Disney film ‘The Muppet Christmas Carol’ opposite Michael Caine and the cast of the Muppets.
After a ten year absence, Meredith returns to performing with the release of her debut solo album on March 26th, 2012. 'Someone Else's Story' is a hand-picked collection of songs from contemporary musical theatre, each one of them telling a very personal story. Composers include Stephen Sondheim, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Michel Legrand, Stiles and Drewe and Stephen Schwartz.
This stunning, intimate collection features Arrangements and Musical Direction by Paul Bateman (Musical Director for Sarah Brightman, Lesley Garrett).
Recorded at London's Angel Studios September - December 2011.
