Interesting because this isn't who I'd heard! I'd heard Rob was in it but not at Jack. |

Maybe they cast it five years ago and they’re only just telling us? 😀

Very underwhelming casting. And Layton, ugh.

It’s the cast announcement that makes me want to see this. Last time I saw Titanic it was newly released on VHS, so hadn’t taken any notice of it until now.

No matter how you feel about this cast, the singing will be off the charts!

I've already booked for this even though I know little about the show.
Please tell me Leyton Williams role is a minor one as I don't think I could stomach him in a lead role.
However very pleased to see Rob Houchen and Jordan luke Gage there. Also Freddie King as I've followed him on Instagram for a long time but never got to see him on stage.

Not a particularly diverse cast.

If it is like the New York production, 'Iceberg Bitch' does the opening, is on stage to sing 2 songs, and has some minor appearances throughout. I would not call it a lead, more a supporting role. |

As someone said above, it was the casting that convinced me to book this too!
Very excited to see this show now.

JLG and the fans he brings with him makes me want to see this less, when is his understudy on?

Booking for this is gonna be fun with people variously trying to see their favourites and/or avoiding those performers they can't stand  |

Lauren DREW though!!!!! My eyes did roll when I saw Layton announced but I think he just comes across annoying in interviews.
I am surprised Bianco wasn’t cast - maybe further down the line if she’s interested.

I really want to see this as have heard great things. All tix full price at the moment (and pricey). Do we think this will become discounted/rush or given it's reputation, the cast having fans and the small venue will it sell really well?

I would imagine so at some point but it will help with the JLG fans if there isn’t as they are used to everything he does being on Rush |

I thought Laytons Emcee was great can understand him wanting to do something fun after Cabaret it can't have been easy as a mixed race person playing that role, the many glowing reviews of the show in NY is making me consider it and Lauren Drew seems like she will make a good Celine
