Mary-Ann Connolly
Mary-Ann has had a very long and varied career in show business. Her professional journey has taken her from west end dancer and TV actress to air stewardess, business woman, secondary school teacher, cultural project officer, founding a site specific theatre company to award winning producer. Amazingly she still enjoys sitting in the stalls and enjoying a good show.
