S Club 7 star to join Jersey Boys
Wednesday, 8 December 2010
Jon Lee, one of the former members of pop group S Club 7, is to join Jersey Boys next year, it has been revealed.
The performer will share the lead role of Frankie Valli with Ryan Molloy from March 15th 2011, singing hits such as Big Girls Don't Cry, Walk Like A Man and Bye Bye Baby.
It is not the first time Lee has trod the boards since S Club 7 disbanded, having appeared as Marius in Les Miserables among other roles.
However, he said he feels very lucky to be joining the West End show and can't wait to get started.
"I'm so excited to be playing the role of Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys, it's been a goal of mine since the show opened," he added.
Jersey Boys opened at the Prince Edward Theatre on March 18th 2008 and has gone on to become a firm favourite in London.
Geri Halliwell was recently spotted going to see it with her family.
