Tara Lanagan

Agency and Talent Manager

Tara's wealth of knowledge in the Cruise industry started when her professional career saw her perform onboard a number of different cruise lines as a dancer/dance captain within the production cast starting at the age of 19. After 8 years on the high seas it was time to hang up the dancing shoes and put down some land roots.

Tara's love for the cruising industry and experience provided her with the perfect knowledge to work for P&O cruises in the head office starting in the Charter flights department and soon moving to where her heart truly lies within Entertainment. Working within the Entertainment Department Tara was responsible for the booking and logistics for the whole entertainment programme for Aurora and remained in this role for over 9 years. Tara joined Zoe Tyler International in 2017 bringing her extensive experience of the industry, as a booker, operation and logistic executive to Zoe Tyler International as
Agency and Talent Manager.
