⭐ BROADWAY STAR DESI OAKLEY TO COVER WEST END’S WAITRESS DUE TO CAST ILLNESS ⭐
Broadway star Desi Oakley has been flown over to London, by the producers of Waitress, to perform in the show this coming week.
This is following a recent spate of cast illnesses.
Oakley, who was the original Jenna in the US tour, will make her West End debut and play the role for a full week from this Monday 13th January.
Lucie Jones and understudies Olivia Moore and Sarah O’Connor have all been taken ill, which forced Saturday 11th January’s Waitress showings to be cancelled.
Oh wow! ! ! Hope all involved get well soon but what an unexpected treat for Waitress fans! ! !
