Following acclaimed and award-winning performances in the international tour, Seann will appear in Michael Harrison and Cameron Mackintosh’s new version of Boublil and Schönberg’s legendary musical at Mayflower Theatre early next year.
The production, which runs from January 27 to February 7, also welcomes brilliant new talent Julianne Pundan, making her professional debut as Kim alongside exciting actor and singer Jack Kane, who has starred in Dragonheart Vengeance opposite Helena Bonham Carter, and Years And Years with Rory Kinnear and Emma Thompson as Chris.
Dom Hartley-Harris, recently seen in the West End as George Washington in Hamilton, is John, while Emily Langham (Singin’ in the Rain, Hello, Dolly, The Witches) is Ellen.
The cast is completed by Mikko Juan (Hulu /BBC iPlayer’s Better Things, Urinetown: The Musical) as Thuy and Ace who reached the semi-finals of BBC One’s The Voice in 2024 as part of Sir Tom Jones’ team, as Gigi.
Cameron Mackintosh said: “Since we first announced this new production, I have been genuinely delighted at the enthusiasm of the public determined not to miss Saigon, with tickets flying out of the box office and several of the announced cities already nearly sold out.
“We have now completed our search for a really fantastic cast, full of exciting discoveries, that will bring Boublil and Schönberg’s extraordinary, powerful musical back to thrilling life. I can’t wait to see Miss Saigon reborn again.”
For three years, Kim goes on an epic journey of survival to find her way back to Chris, who has no idea he’s fathered a son.
Since its London premiere in 1989, Cameron Mackintosh’s original production has become one of the most successful musicals in history.
