Bronte Barbe

Bronte Barbe was a Dorothy through to the live finals, but left Week 2. She is an assistant drama teacher.

Background
Like Dorothy, Bronte is a small-town girl determined to make her own way in life.

Bronte lives with her mum and sister, and pet dog William, in Cheshire. Her Aunt has always been a big support for Bronte because she was trained in classical singing and always encouraged her to follow her dreams. She used to sing songs from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and idolised Truly Scrumptious.

Bronte has been volunteering as an Assistant Drama Teacher at her old drama school for a few years, and in Summer 2009 she had a lead role in Youth Music Theatre's UK production of A Winter's Tale which was performed at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre in Guildford. Through this she gained her Grade 8 Group Musical Theatre with Distinction.

She describes herself as "small, over-excited, wacky, a perfectionist, determined, hardworking, loyal, honest and friendly" - and she learnt to speak fluent Welsh in eight weeks when she was seven!
