All About Très
Though she is known first and foremost as a “sit-com” actress in the U.K, Très’ work is truly international and spans the entire entertainment field.
Born in Jersey City, New Jersey, a teenage protégé of Leonard Bernstein, Très attended the Juilliard School of Music when she was chosen by him to sing as the principal female soloist in one of the last Great Composers Series at Lincoln Center which he conducted her singing his tour de force 'GLITTER & BE GAY' from Candide and more. She went on to perform in numerous musicals in the U.S. and abroad, including My Fair Lady (Eliza) and Camelot (Guinevere). In the London revival of The Beggar’s Opera, she made history as the first “non-British born" actress to play 'Polly Peachum' in Britain since the musical was first performed in 1728.
