Andrew Lloyd Webber and director Jack O'Brien have cast Summer Strallen (the Sound of Music) to play the Ooh La La girl in the Phantom sequel Love Never Dies. The Ooh La La girl is the name Mr Y (aka the Phantom) has given to Meg Giry who was the young ballet student in Phantom of the Opera.
Summer sang on the show's concept album and her character's story is very dramatic, but we will have to wait until previews begin at the Adelphi on February 20th to discover what fate awaits her at Phantasma.
Miss Strallen will play opposite Sierra Boggess as Christine and Ramin Karimloo, playing the Phantom.
Liz Robertson will play Meg's mother Madame Giry and Joseph Millson has the role of Christine's husband Raoul, the Vicomte de Chagny.
Love Never Dies could open to the biggest box office advance in West End history as already some £4.7 million worth of tickets have been sold in a week.
