A really random guess of mine is that we could be getting the original Broadway Lola and Charlie for a few weeks; Billy Porter and Stark Sands. I know they reprised their roles on Broadway. I would have thought that was highly unlikely given that few people would get the significance over here

Simon is staying, he’s confirmed that himself, so either this photo is him alongside the new Charlie or it’s both the new London Charlie and the tour Charlie. Whoever it is I hope it’s the full announcement isn’t too far off now

Caption is “So who is stepping into our pair” implying that it’s a single person
My guess is that it’s a photo of the new London Charlie alongside Simon

They are really teasing this now, hopefully it will be a huge cast announcement or else it won't seem worth it. The promo kinda reminds me of when Beverley was first joining The Bodyguard. They put out so many readers before it was official.

It needs to be a big announcement to make any of this worthwhile. Hoping it comes tomorrow rather than them holding it off until Friday

Might this be related - given earlier speculation

I think Natalie McQueen may be the new Lauren either in London or on tour. Just noticed she has quite a few people from KB / people who have been speculated to be joining the cast in her Twitter followings.

I've always thought Natalie would make a great Lauren.

I've always thought Natalie would make a great Lauren. I also saw she was following Idriss Kargbo who I think would be a fantastic Lola. But I know Simon is staying so maybe he's on the tour?

I still think Layton Williams needs to be Lola at some point.

I still think Layton Williams needs to be Lola at some point. He’s in Hairspray at the minute though so he probably won’t be in it for a while.

Just noticed she has quite a few people from KB / people who have been speculated to be joining the cast in her Twitter followings. I noticed this as well, she also liked one of the posts from the Kinky Boots twitter (the "who's stepping into red boots" one). Definitely giving off the impression that she's joining either the London or the tour cast, hoping she joins London as Lauren but I guess only time will tell

I hate to use this term when we talk dream casting, as you never really know... but I think Natalie would be perfect for Lauren. She's hilarious, has a great voice, looks beautiful and would look great in those boots!

I just commented on one of the posts saying I hope it's Natalie taking over, and the Kinky Boots official account liked it.

I just commented on one of the posts saying I hope it's Natalie taking over, and the Kinky Boots official account liked it. I did the same and mentioned Oliver Tompsett as Charlie. They liked it. I really hope it's Natalie on tour though because that's the one I have a ticket for.

I just commented on one of the posts saying I hope it's Natalie taking over, and the Kinky Boots official account liked it. They've liked every reply on there, including one saying Jordan Fox and one saying that they hope the tour is coming to Switzerland. It doesn't mean anything...

Do we know when the cast change is scheduled to happen? KB is on the maybe list for things I might see during my June trip, the new cast members could potentially help make my mind up either way!

This is mildly annoying to me because i was excited to see Natalie but was hoping she was part of the tour cast as i don't really plan to see the London production again this year. I've already seen the show three times and that's kinda my limit but am making an exception for the tour as that's really a different production.
