Joseph Millson

Joseph Millson and Liz Robertson will join the previously announced Ramin Karimloo, Sierra Boggess and Summer Strallen in the principal line-up of actors who will star in Love Never Dies.

Andrew Lloyd Webber's follow-up to The Phantom of the Opera begins performances at London's Adelphi Theatre Feb. 20, prior to an official opening March 9, 2010.

Millson will play Raoul, who is now married to Christine in the new story, set in Coney Island ten years on from where Phantom ended. Millson, who completes a run in the Almeida's production of Judgment Day Oct. 17, is set to feature next in the world premiere of Michael Wynne's seventh play The Priory, beginning performances Nov. 19 (prior to an official opening Nov. 26), at the Royal Court, where it runs through Jan. 9, 2010. He has previously appeared in Mark Ravenhill's Shoot/Get Treasure/Repeat at the Royal Court. Other credits include The Fairy Queen (Glyndbourne), Every Good Boy Deserves Favour (National Theatre), Cinderella (Old Vic) and Much Ado About Nothing (RSC). His forthcoming TV roles include "Enid" (BBC) and "Campus" (Channel 4).

Robertson, who will play Madame Giry, the ballet mistress at the Phantom's previous haunt of the Paris Opera House, previously played the same role during the London run of The Phantom of the Opera at Her Majesty's Theatre. She is currently playing the role of Velma Von Tussle in Hairspray at the Shaftesbury Theatre, through Oct. 24. She previously played Eliza Doolittle in Cameron Mackintosh's 1979 revival of My Fair Lady at the Adelphi. Other West End credits include the original London runs of A Little Night Music, I Love My Wife and The Mitford Girls. On Broadway, she has appeared in the short-lived runs of Dance a Little Closer and the revue Kern Goes to Hollywood.

Following London, Love Never Dies will open on Broadway in November 2010.
