Ex-Brookside babe loves stage buzz

Ex-Brookside actress Jennifer Ellison is best known for playing Emily Shadwick in the doomed serial, but she is now gaining a reputation for being one of the hardest working women in showbiz.

In an interview with FemaleFirst, the bubbly blonde compared her stage career with working in TV, and said: "It's totally different, with TV it can drag on and you don't know what you are going to get done in a day.

"Whereas with theatre, you are in at five o'clock and you are home at 10pm. The buzz that you get from performing live you can't get out of TV. You never know what the audience is going to be like or how they are going to react."

She added: "Sometimes they love you and other times they are a bit quiet, and it's that huge adrenaline kick from performing live."

When asked about whether she misses Brookside, Ellison replied: "In my industry you kind of do a job and then you finish it and all go your separate ways.

"I miss the familyness of it, going into work with the same people every single day and forming a bond with them, so I really miss that."

But the star continued: "However, it's very hard work and long hours. It was a big part of my life but I feel like I have done enough soap and I'm really excited to do War of the Worlds and other roles."

Speaking about her current role as Beth in the sci-fi spectacular, which she will be touring with next year, Ellison enthused: "I was approached to audition, and they sent me through some of the material.

"I absolutely fell in love with it, it's just phenomenal. It's amazing the amount of work that has been put in - it's not your typical stage show. It's absolutely huge and spectacular."

Pre-sale of tickets for The War of The Worlds - Alive on Stage! 2009 Tour are available now.
