Little Miss Firecracker
Article Abstract:
Many musicals are rather weak, according to actress Imelda Staunton. She does not feel that this is the case with 'Guys and Dolls,' a musical with which she has become closely associated. She has gained a very positive reputation as a versatile actress, and has a very strong stage presence, even though she is only small physically. She no longer has an extremely strong drive to constantly attempt new parts, but still cares very much about acting.
