The WhatsOnStage Award-winning production will be back this summer
Ellis will take on the role in the WhatsOnStage Award-winning revival of the much-loved comedy musical, which will open on tour next month ahead of a London run. She is set to appear alongside a leading cast of Denis Lawson, Bonnie Langford, Simon Callow, Samuel Edwards, Nicole-Lily Baisden, Haydn Oakley and WhatsOnStage Award-winner Carly Mercedes Dyer.
In exciting news, the show has added a number of weeks to its London run and will now commence performances from Saturday 25 June rather than Friday 15 July.
Further casting for the show was also revealed this morning.
