Penelope Cruz has admitted that she fancies her hand at trying a musical in the near future.

The actress is known mainly for her drama work, but feels her experience as a dancer when she was younger could be put to better use, and is a big fan of film adaptations of stage musicals.

As well as Chicago and The Phantom Of The Opera, Cruz also has an admiration for Nicole Kidman's work in the field: "My hope someday is to do a musical, like Nicole Kidman in Moulin Rouge! She was so great. I could use all my dancing."
