Vivien Care
Born and educated in Wales, Vivien initially trained at the Welsh
College of Music and Drama, continuing her studies on the
postgraduate Musical Theatre Course at the Royal Academy of Music,
graduating with distinction and receiving the prestigious Mary
Hammond Prize. Since then she has sustained a busy and varied
career in Musical Theatre - in prominent roles in large-scale West
End musicals as well as in small-scale and fringe productions,
session work and radio broadcasts. She is also much in demand as a
vocal consultant and coach. She can currently be seen as Sister
Margaretta in The Sound of Music.
Vivien’s experience as a performer and teacher, together with
extensive industry links have done much to inform an approach to
the training of musical theatre practitioners at the highest level,
based on a thorough awareness of the interdependent disciplines of
acting, singing and dance.
