Ruth Cahill  (Kate Murphy) first performed with WWOS at age seven when she joined her parents on stage in The Music Man.  She has continued to perform regularly with the company as a chorus member in Annie Get Your Gun, The Yeomen of the Guard and Pickwick, and as a dancer in Mack and Mabel. At school she danced in shows ranging from Penguin Cafe to Guys and Dolls, including performances at the Millennium Dome. She played her first lead, Yum Yum (The Mikado), at the age of eleven and in 2002 had her first solo role with WWOS as Chava (Fiddler on the Roof). Having just graduated from the University of Leicester with a BA in Sociology, Ruth is delighted to be back on the stage with WWOS again!
