Where have you seen Corrie's celebrant before?

If you're wondering where you've seen the woman who played the celebrant in Coronation Street tonight, then wonder no more.  

The celebrant is played by Hayley Cartwright who has been in Coronation Street before, as the celebrant at Baby Oliver's (it's not a christening it's a naming ceremony) christening that was held at the Bistro earlier this year.  We blogged about that here.

And she also appeared as the wedding celebrant at Aidan and Eva's wedding. We blogged about that here.

Hayley's screen credits include the film Time Burst in which she plays Alysha, a time lady and an inventor. 2018 also saw Hayley working at The Royal Exchange, working with The Contact Theatre on the project Re:Con, Temporary Monument, Permanent Protest. 

She played Lisa in the comedy Up the Bunting for which she gained glowing reviews ('excellent acting by Cartwright'). As a voice artist she also voiced the most hilarious character - a 250 million year old column of coal! 

2018 also saw Hayley join the programme, Your MCR (a YouTube channel) as the 'soap gossip' presenter, weekly. Once a month, I also have a special guest. Last year these have included  Georgia Taylor (Toyah in Corrie) and Dolly-Rose Campbell (Gemma).

Her reviews are fantastic, and her stage acting profile is amazing. There is far too much to blog here, so I urge you have a look at her Spotlight CV which outlines all of her TV, stage, film, radio and voiceover work.

Corrie fans who have been on the Coronation Street Tour might recognise Hayley as she performed as a tour guide there, gaining glowing reviews!

And finally, yes I’ve met her and yes, she is as lovely as she looks in her profile pic!

Where have you seen Corrie's wedding celebrant before?

If you're wondering where you've seen Hazel, the woman who played the celebrant at Aidan and Eva's wedding before, then wonder no more.  

The celebrant is played by Hayley Cartwright who has been in Coronation Street before, as the celebrant at Baby Oliver's christening (it's not a christening it's a naming ceremony) that was held at the Bistro earlier this year.  We blogged about that here.

Hayley is the voice of Donna in Magic Hands for CBeebies, a groundbreaking show that was nominated for a Broadcast Award.  She’s also worked in TV with such credits as: That's Manchester and in various films. Her latest film in which she plays the fabulous character of the Devil’s P.A, will premier this summer.

Her reviews are fantastic, and her stage acting profile is amazing. There is far too much to blog here, so I urge you have a look at her Spotlight CV which outlines all of her TV, stage, film, radio and voiceover work. 

Corrie fans who have been on the Coronation Street Tour might recognise Hayley as she performed as a tour guide there, gaining glowing reviews!

She is also one half of The Lipstick Thespians, with Alexis Tuttle, and enjoys being the diversity rep for Manchester on behalf of the local Equity branch. Last year, she organised for Equity to participate in the Manchester Pride parade, and she will be repeating that this year. 

And finally, yes I’ve met her and yes, she is as lovely as she looks in her profile pic!

Coronation Street Celebrant in New Stage Play

A new play starring Coronation Street's most recent celebrant opens in Manchester next month.

"Up the Bunting!" stars Hayley Cartwright, who played the celebrant at Baby Oliver's christening (it's not a christening, it's a baby naming ceremony) back in May this year. You can find out more about her here.

"Up the Bunting!" is the directorial debut of Alexis Tuttle and is billed as a comic yet poignant one act play about love, loss reiki and bric-a-brac. It's written by Stephen Donald and will run for two nights at Manchester Bar Pop on September 13 and 14.

Buy your tickets here.
