Elaine's book "Memories" is published in celebration of her 40 years on the stage and tells the remarkable story of her life in words & pictures.

In "Memories" Elaine takes us through her extraordinary career from her earliest stage appearances with Joan Littlewood’s groundbreaking company in London’s East End to her many starring roles in some of the biggest musicals of modern times, including Cats, Evita, Grease, Piaf, Sunset Boulevard and The Drowsy Chaperone, sharing moments of joy and regret. Illustrated with an extraordinary collection of images in colour and black and white, both commissioned for this book and drawn from her own archive, Memories depicts Elaine in some of her most iconic roles, but also shows her away from the stage, in childhood, with family and friends, and on her travels. A revealing and funny insight into the life and career of a true national treasure.
