This weekend, the casts of more than 30 West End shows perform for free in Trafalgar Square! WEST END LIVE 2016 took place yesterday, 18 June (11am-6pm) and today, 19 June (12pm-6pm). Today, Samantha Barks took the stage to sing crowd favorite "On My Own." Check out her performance below!

Since rocketing to fame as a finalist on the BBC's talent show themed television series I'd do Anything in 2008, Samantha Barks has starred in some of the most loved productions on the West End stage and beyond. Widely acclaimed for her breathtaking voice and emotive power, Samantha's heart-rending portrayal of Eponine in LES MISERABLES earned her an international reputation as a world-class interpreter of song. Having made the role wholly her own, Samantha was duly asked to reprise thepart by theatre impresario Cameron Mackintosh for Tom Hooper's Academy Award winning film adaptation (also starring Hugh Jackman, Eddie Redmayne and Russell Crowe). Delivering a standout performance amongst a star-studded cast, Samantha's appearance saw her announced as Empire Magazine's 'Best Female Newcomer' and nominated for an illustrious Screen Actor's Guild Award.
