Ask someone who Abi Titmuss is, and you'll most likely to get a response involving either Celebrity Love Island or *triple-shudder* John Leslie – but it turns out that our Abi has actually been doing a whole load of serious thespian-type stuff. The former nurse has just been cast as none other than Lady Macbeth in a Seagull Theatre production of Shakespeare's Macbeth. Oooh – get her! Shakespeare and everything. We're impressed. The artistic director of the show told us, "There is no stunt casting – this is someone who is earning her stripes. She is a really, really good actress and that was one of the main considerations as we needed a strong female lead. To those who have not seen her she will be a wonderful surprise. She brings depth and heart to it and she will move people." Wow. That is some serious praise. We're extremely intrigued. You go, Abi!
