Natalie McQueen (born 1 June 1989) is an English actress known for her performances in a number of UK West End productions including Bonnie & Clyde, 9 to 5, Kinky Boots and Wicked. She was named as one of the ten theatre faces to look out for in 2017 after her performance in a one-night-only concert entitled An evening with Frank Wildhorn and friends in Manchester. In September 2018, it was announced that McQueen would play the leading role of Doralee Rhodes in the first West End run of Broadway musical 9 to 5, a character originally played by Dolly Parton in the 1980s film of the same name.
