⭐ HELEN GEORGE TO LEAD UK & IRELAND TOUR OF THE KING AND I ⭐
Helen George will star as Anna Leonowens in a major new UK & Ireland tour of the beloved Rodgers & Hammerstein musical The King and I, it has been announced.
George is best known to millions for the past decade as Trixie in the hit BBC One series Call The Midwife.
Having trained at the Royal Academy of Music and the Birmingham School of Acting, her previous musical theatre credits include Company, Love Never Dies and The Woman In White.
Further casting for the UK tour will be announced soon.
This gloriously lavish production will be brought to the stage by an internationally renowned creative team under Tony Award-winning director Bartlett Sher and will feature a world-class company of over 50 talented performers and a full-scale orchestra.
Following a critically acclaimed Broadway smash-hit run, a sold-out season at the London Palladium (which resulted in the biggest global live event cinema release of 2018) and a previous record-breaking UK and International tour, this multi-Tony Award-winning production returns to venues all over the country next year – visiting Canterbury, Wimbledon, Liverpool, Birmingham, Llandudno, High Wycombe, Bristol, Dartford, Bradford, Southend, Cardiff, Glasgow and Dublin.
Further UK cities and details of a major international tour will be announced soon.
The King and I is a sumptuous, timeless romance from the golden age of musicals, adored by the public and critics alike – and boasting one of the finest scores ever written, including Whistle a Happy Tune, Getting to Know You, and Shall We Dance.
