Producers have announced details of two planned cast changes in the European premiere production of the musical  Death Takes A Holiday at the Charing Cross Theatre.

A soaring story of the preciousness of life and the overwhelming power of love, Death Takes A Holiday continues its limited season to Saturday 4 March.

From Monday 13 February, James Gant will take over in the central role of Death from Chris Peluso, who is leaving the production as planned for the UK tour of Funny Girl. James played Etches in Titanic (at Charing Cross Theatre); Mr Bumble in Oliver! (Leicester Curve); Rohna and Zinnowitz in Grand Hotel (Southwark Playhouse); and was cover Javert in Les Misérables (Queen’s Theatre).

Gant’s current role of manservant Fidele will now be played by Ken Christiansen, who has been shortlisted twice as Best Supporting Male Performance in the 2016 Offies for The Fix and The Rise & Fall of Little Voice.
