Posted on
Comedian, singer and actress **Myra DuBois** set to take on the role of Ruth for a limited six-week engagement from 1 September to 11 October 2026 in [*Titanique*](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/titanique-tickets).  Before **DuBois** steps aboard, etiquette expert and podcast host **William Hanson** will extend his current run in the role until 26 July following popular demand. Original West End cast member **Stephen Guarino** will then return as Ruth from 28 July to 30 August. A multi-award-winning performer, **Myra DuBois** reached the semi-finals of *Britain's Got Talent* and appeared in *Everybody's Talking About Jamie* and ITV1's *Queens For The Night*, where she was the winning mentor. Her stage credits include *Death Drop* at the Garrick Theatre, while her solo shows have played venues ranging from the Edinburgh Fringe to Sydney Opera House. Speaking about joining the production, **DuBois** said: "How thrilled I am to be joining the cast of Titanique in London’s glittering West End! I saw the show a few weeks back and had one of the best nights out in the theatre I’d had in a long time; gales of laughter from start to finish. And Ruth is the role of a lifetime. I can’t wait to sink my teeth into the character and give the part the dramatique gravitas, levity, brevity and integrity that this script is calling out for!”


The current cast of *Titanique* also includes **Lewis Francis** as The Iceberg, **Rose Galbraith** as Rose, Astrid Harris as Céline Dion, Freddie King as Jack, Cameron Vear as Cal, **Michael Vinsen** as Victor Garber/Luigi and **Nikki Wheeldon** as Molly Brown. **AJ Lewis, Joi Lurrie** and **Corrine Priest** appear as on-stage background vocalists, with **Finton Flynn, Josh Lovell** and **Charlotte Soo** serving as offstage understudies. Further casting for the role of Ruth from 11 October onwards will be announced at a later date. [*Titanique*](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/titanique-tickets) is currently booking at the [Criterion Theatre](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/venue/criterion-theatre-london) until January 2027.
