Any Flynn Will Do! Lee Mead joins Chicago

Author KittyKitty, April 19th, 2022

The West End heart-throb joins the star-studded UK tour of Chicago as Lawyer Billy Flynn

Swapping his coat of many colours for the slick suit of Chicago's spurious Billy Flynn, Lee Mead joins Gemma Collins who makes her theatrical debut as Mama Morton on the tour from May 31st.

Picked by Andrew Lloyd Webber himself from hundreds of competitors on the 2007 BBC program Any Dream Will Do, Mead won the coveted contract to lead Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in the West End, before heading on to more top West End jobs, stints on Casualty, Holby City and a recording contract.
