Gill Cooke
Gill began singing at an early age, where she regularly sang with the Awsworth Church Choir. She has performed in many shows for the Langley Mill players and the Chatsworth Musical Society. Ballroom dancing proved to be another interest she would put to good use later in life. Since joining EMS, Gill has played many leading roles for us including the title role in “Mame”.
