The production subsequently transferred to the West End in June 2011 in which Dann reprised her role.[3] She received great acclaim for her performance, with Michael Billington writing "Sophie-Louise Dann seizes her moment and gives wonderfully over-the-top potted parodies of Tosca, Violetta and Carmen, while hugging the walls and clawing the furniture in the manner of an old-style soprano".[4] She was nominated for the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Performance in a Supporting Role in a Musical.[5]

In April 2013 She played Dot and Marie in Sunday in the Park with George by Stephen Sondheim at Théatre du Chatelet, Paris, broadcast by Mezzo TV

In 2017, Dann played the role of Celia in the West End production of the musical The Girls. For this role she was nominated for a Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical alongside fellow cast members Joanna Riding, Claire Moore, Claire Machin, Debbie Chazen and Michelle Dotrice.[8] On 20 December 2017, the launch of Robert J. Sherman's A Spoonful of Sherman UK/Ireland tour was announced.
