Emma Hatton (not to be confused with Emma Hunton) is going even greener! The current West End standby Elphaba will step into the main role after Jennifer DiNoia ends her 14-week engagement on January 31, 2015. London’s Wicked is playing at the Apollo Victoria Theatre.
Hatton’s additional stage credits include We Will Rock You, Dreamboats and Petticoats, When Midnight Strikes, Cinderella and Christmas in New York.
The Wicked company is currently undergoing a number of changes, but from October 27 the cast will also include Savannah Stevenson as Glinda, Jeremy Taylor as Fiyero, Martyn Ellis as The Wizard, Liza Sadovy as Madame Morrible, Philip Childs as Doctor Dillamond, Katie Rowley Jones as Nessarose, Sam Lupton as Boq, Emma Hatton as Standby Elphaba and Sophie Linder-Lee as Standby Glinda.
