Titanique will go on (and on)
Posted on
*[Titanique](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/titanique-tickets)* refuses to sink. Just like **Céline Dion**’s heart, it will go on (and on). The Olivier Award-winning comedy-musical has announced a new cast member joining its West End voyage and an extension at London’s [Criterion Theatre](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/venue/criterion-theatre-london), proving that, much like Rose on that door, there’s still room for more.
Blending Dion’s chart-topping ballads with the sweeping melodrama of James Cameron’s Titanic, the show has been praised as “a riotous voyage.” Co-created by **Tye Blue**, **Marla Mindell**e, and **Constantine Rousouli**, it reimagines the Ship of Dreams with a raft of Céline classics, from “All By Myself” to the inevitable “My Heart Will Go On.”
Currently leading the West End cast are **Luke Bayer** as Jack, **Hiba Elchikhe** as Rose, **Richard Carson** as Cal, **Astrid Harris** as Céline Dion’s, **Carl Mullaney** as Ruth, **Jenny O’Leary** as Molly Brown, and **Tim Walton** as Victor Garber (and Luigi, because why not?). **Tosh Wanogho-Maud** will continue to give the audience goosebumps as The Iceberg until 5 October, with **Ryan Carter** (*Motown the Musical*) taking over after. Background vocals come courtesy of **Adrianne Langley**, **Madison Swan**, and **Rodney Vubya**, with **David Ouch**, **Freddie King**, and **Caitlin Tipping** waiting in the wings.
Directed by Blue (*RuPaul’s Drag Race*) and choreographed by Ellenore Scott (*Funny Girl, Little Shop of Horrors*), the production boasts musical supervision and orchestrations by **Nicholas James Connell**. The creative crew also features designers **Gabriel Hainer Evansohn**, **Grace Laubacher**, **Alejo Vietti**, **Paige Seber**, and **Lawrence Schober**.
[Titanique](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/titanique-tickets) is now booking at the [Criterion Theatre](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/venue/criterion-theatre-london) until 7 June 2026. So if you missed Titanic in cinemas back in ’97, here’s your second chance to never let go.
