Carley Stenson is best known for her 11 year stint on popular soap Hollyoaks. The English actress played the role of Steph Cunningham between 2000 and 2011. After completing filming for Hollyoaks in 2010, she joined the cast of the West End smash hit musical Legally Blonde, playing the role of Serena and understudying the lead role of Elle Woods, assuming the role full time in July 2011. When Legally Blonde closed in April 2012, Stenson moved straight onto another starring role in the West End – that of Princess Fiona in Shrek The Musical. She returned to the West End in November 2013 as the Lady of the Lake in Monty Python's Spamalot at the Playhouse Theatre, and was most recently seen in the UK Tour of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, playing Christine Colgate.
Carley Stenson was set to return to theatre in April 2017, starring in the new musical Sleepless alongside her fiancée, fellow actor Danny Mac. However the production was postponed due personal reasons.
Since June 2017, Stenson took over the role of Fantine in Les Miserables alongside Killian Donnelly. Click here to read our interview with Stenson about taking on the role.
