A LEYTONSTONE teenager is set to appear in a new stage musical based on the story of Jamaica.

Camara Fearon, 13, who attends Connaught School for Girls, will appear in JA Story at the Stratford Circus from October 29.

The budding performer has already made solo appearances at the theatre and at the Hackney Empire.

JA Story follows the fortunes of famous inhabitants of the Caribbean island including reggae singer Bob Marley and James Bond author Ian Fleming.

Their stories are told through music and dance, beginning from the arrival of Christopher Columbus in 1494.

The show is composed and directed by JD Douglas.
