In one of her special themed programmes, Elaine celebrates some of the most virtuous - and vile - characters in musical theatre!

Generally, musical theatre is full of characters who inspire and uplift 鈥� so Elaine will shine a deserving light on some of the fictional legends that we hold up as warriors or good eggs, such as Jean Valjean from Les Mis or Eliza in Hamilton.

But where there鈥檚 good, there鈥檚 always evil 鈥� so Elaine鈥檚 swag bag is also heavy with sadistic show tunes from rogues, scoundrels, hoodlums, wrongdoers and good-for-nothings, from the likes of Chicago, Beauty and the Beast, and Cats, as she also marks out the musical and movie bad guys in her Heroes and Villains Edition!
