I'm so glad London will get to see this breathtaking production!

Just saw that too! If it plays more than 7 weeks, I might have to take a trip to London!
I've wanted to see a major production of South Pacific for ages so this is good news.
I just can't see Samantha Womack playing a naive cock-eyed optimist.

Any other casting announced? There were rumors Loretta Ables Sayre would play Bloody Mary in London.

To be fair to Ms. Womack, when they announced Carmen Cusack for Nellie on the US tour a lot of people couldn't picture her doing it... and she's brilliant, getting raves everywhere the tour has played.
She might surprise you! :)
