Sheridan Smith looks worse for wear as she staggers across the road while filming scenes for new role
The beloved Brit actress, 42, was seen crawling on her hands and knees in Soho's streets playing drunk while filming scenes for her new West End role.
Her dressing room, which she calls her 'shrine', is littered with pictures of her three-year-old son Billy and it's where she recuperates after performing her main drunk scene, which she'll improvise each night, that is so physically demanding she joked about needing to use shin pads. But despite her illustrious background in music and theatre, she felt the need to have singing lessons to ensure her vocal delivery matches the standards set by legendary US singer and composer Rufus Wainwright, the man behind the show's soundtrack. Thankfully for the much-loved star, who's featured in the likes of Gavin and Stacey, Cilla, and theatre show Legally Blonde, she's managed to rebuild her career, both on screen and on stage, while also balancing being a mum to Billy, to have her name in lights once again in Opening Night.
