Having seen Ashley Samuels in The Toxic Avenger, I think he would be perfect for Lola. Got the voice, style and can walk in heals.

Loved Paul, would LOVE Jon Robyns. It'd be great to see Ashley Samuels in a big role!

Yep, Glinda also sprung immediately to my mind when I saw her in Xanadu. Great voice and comic timing. That said: I do want to see Xanadu return so badly, one of my best nights out last year (well, actually afternoons). |

Sophie Issacs could take over?

I think that Carley Stenson would be rather good in the role, she has the personality to play a funny role and she was great in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. Also she replaced Amy Lennox in Legally Blonde...

I think that most of the cast, including ensemble, will leave to be honest. Probably be a full revamp

Carley Stenson wouldn't surprise me as Jerry does like to keep it in the family, so to speak, but dunno if it would be a big enough role for her

Well Margot was quite a small role for her and Lauren is a very good part in the show, 3rd main part in the whole show. She would be good in the role and some work is better than no work |

I reckon Amy will stay as Lauren and Emma Crossley will move to 1st cover Lauren if she isn't leaving herself.

Killian only ever seems to do a year and move on to something new. His past 3 shows have all been new to the West End so perhaps he'll have something new lined up, what are the potential new shows? Does anyone know cast change date? |

Shall i start the obligatory speculation of who the new cast will be then?  If Killian is leaving......Jon Robyns as Charlie? Any suggestions for Lola? Jesus I seriously hope not |

What about Lauren Samuels?
I'd happily see either Ashley Alexander Campbell or Leon Lopez as Lola

Worst Enjolras I've ever encountered Have you seen him in any other role? I find it interesting as in Legally Blonde i thought he was a stand out. Great acting and didn't notice any bizarre facial expressions. Maybe he just wasn't suited to Enjolras. |

Yes I would say that his performance in the Les Mis tour is not representative of the sort of performance he has given in other shows, and seems particularly at home doing comedic roles. I for one am a big fan (I may have mentioned this once or twice before!). Personally I'd like to see Paul Ayres in the role again. For me he gave the stand out performance of the show, and had a fantastic voice. Gemma Sutton could be a good Lauren. But of course she'll be in The Go Between if the cast change is in Sept. |

I hated his Memphis Lives in Me. I have to say I do have his CD and I really don't mind his voice, just don't like his acting
