Elaine Paige is the British star of the stage and many favourite musicals. She is currently planning a CD of new material and a CD of a concert in China, recorded in April 2002, entitled Andrew Lloyd Webber Masterpiece, which will be released on 24th September 2002. Born Elaine Bickerstaff in the spring of 1951, Paige has had high profile roles in shows such as "Cats", "Chess", "Evita" and "Sunset Boulevard". She is one of the highest paid female performers around. These pictures form part of a photographic exhibition currently on show at the Museum of Garden History, Lambeth, London, which features well-known women from professions as diverse as acting, writing, fashion and politics who consider gardening a crucial part of their lives. The pictures compliment the forthcoming exhibition, "How Does Her Garden Grow?", which will trace the training of professional women gardeners from the opening of the first women's horticultural colleges at the end of the19th century, right up to the present date, and will run from September to December 2002.
