Best known for her long-running role as Sister Bernadette in BBC’s Call the Midwife, Laura has also starred in The Mill, Murder City, Father Brown, as well as performing right here at Sunderland Empire in 2018 as Princess Fiona in Shrek the Musical.
Laura joins Wearside panto favourites, the fabulous Miss Rory (Boulevard) as Rorina the Cleaner and hilarious funny man Tom Whalley as the side-splitting Vesta the Jester in the North East’s canniest panto!

Sunderland Empire
Vesta Tilley laid the foundation stone of what is now the Sunderland Empire on 29 September 1906 and took to the stage on 1 July 1907 to officially declare the theatre open. Masterminded by two of the contemporary heads of British theatre, Edward Moss and Oswald Stoll, the Sunderland Empire Theatre has undergone many changes since it opened but remains the North East’s premier entertainment venue.
