Lee Mead is set to return to the West End for a roll as Fiyero in London\u2019s Wicked performance. Mead, who is a veteran of the West End with a performance in Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat is set to join the Gregory Maguire story in May. The date he would have returned to the set would have been much earlier had it not been for his wife\u2019s due date – Denise Van Outen is set to give birth to their first child.<\/p>\n
Mead has toured the UK with Oscar Wilde\u2019s Lord Arthur Saville\u2019s Crime and will return to London for what he calls \u201ca fantastic part.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m really excited to be returning to the West End in this incredible show.\u201d The show will see Mead May 10th. Executive Producer of the show added this: \u201dWith a wealth of musical theatre experience already under his belt, Lee was, from the outset, the one to watch in the BBC\u2019s Any Dream Will Do. His much deserved win and subsequent performance in Joseph proved that he was an outstandingly talented leading man. I am really delighted that he has now chosen to make his return to the West End as Fiyero in Wicked alongside a fantastic new cast that will take us into our fifth year.\u201d<\/p>\n
