Lee Mead to play Emmet Forrest in Legally Blonde at the West End's Savoy Theatre.
Just when you thought Legally Blonde couldn't get any shinier, Lee Mead joins the cast as Emmet Forrest. He's the nice lawyer guy not the mean ex-boyfriend (that's Warner). Mead fills the shoes of Alex Gaumond and will tread the boards at Savoy Theatre from mid-June.
He joins Carley Stenson, Nicola Brazil, Siobhan Dillon and Peter Davison. Like Mead, Siobahn Dillon rose to fame via a reality TV series. She appeared on How Do You Solve a Problem like Maria? In 2006. Lee Mead won the BBC's talent competition Any Dream Will Do and went on to play Joseph at Adelphi Theatre in 2007. One of his notable appearances since was in Lord Arthur Savile's Crime at Richmond Theatre.
Legally Blonde recently won multiple Olivier Awards including Best Actress which went to Sheridan Smith, Best Supporting Actress for ex-Eastender Jill Halfpenny and Best New Musical.
Legally Blonde is currently booking until 31st March 2012
