Harriet Bibby of Coronation Street is taking a short break from the ITV soap to work on a play over the summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The actress who plays Summer Spellman is set to appear in a play that will run for four performances in Liverpool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 25-year-old will play ‘Girl’ in ‘Blackbird’ at Liverpool’s Royal Court Studio, a role she is ‘thrilled’ to be a part of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Roots shared a quote from Harriet on the post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“We had our first rehearsal, and I could tell it was going to be a great play. It’s beautifully written, and there’s a lot to unpack, which makes it all the more exciting.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I’m so excited for this,” she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Harriet first appeared on the cobbles in 2020, when she took over the role of adolescent Summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After Matilda Freeman, who was the same age as the character, decided to leave Corrie, the role was recast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Harriet’s career has taken off since she joined the cast, and she was recently named to the long list for the National Television Awards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Summer’s plot began when she returned from visiting her grandmother Geraldine to find that her former guardian Todd Grimshaw had also returned to Weatherfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Summer was followed by viewers as she struggled with her own body confidence after being diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, which turned her life upside down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She had intended to attend Oxford University, but she has had to abandon her plans due to the fact that she must inject insulin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Summer, on the other hand, began to make herself sick after becoming convinced that taking her new medication was causing her to gain weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Summer had a crush on teacher Daniel Osbourne, which was revealed when Max Turner, whom she was mentoring, accused Daniel of grooming the schoolgirl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her most recent story involves being caught cheating in a competition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
