William Hanson Joins Olivier Award Winning Titanique For West End Debut
Posted on
William Hanson, etiquette coach and co-host of award-winning podcast *Help I Sexted My Boss*, which has over 100 million streams, will join the cast of [*Titanique*](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/musical/titanique-tickets) for six weeks from Tuesday 9 June to Sunday 19 July, playing Ruth. The critically acclaimed production has also extended booking to January 2027 at the [Critereon Theatre](https://www.londontheatredirect.com/venue/criterion-theatre-london) due to phenomenal demand.
On joining the show, **Hanson** said:
*“Quite how I’ve ended up boarding Titaníque, I’m not entirely sure. One minute I’m teaching the world table manners on social media, the next I’m in a sequinned fever dream somewhere in the Piccadilly Circus part of the North Atlantic. Titanique is gloriously bonkers, outrageously funny, and exactly the sort of theatrical chaos I adore. I’m thrilled to be joining this sensational cast and have already begun practising the most important skill for the voyage: judging the other passengers from afar.” *
New to London’s ship of dreams alongside **William Hanson** as Ruth are **Lewis Francis** as The Iceberg and **Nikki Wheeldon** as Molly Brown, with **AJ Lewis** and **Joi Lurrie** as on-stage background vocalists, and **Finton Flynn**, **Josh Lovell** and **Charlotte Soo** as off-stage understudies.
They join existing cast members **Rose Galbraith** as Rose, **Astrid Harris** as Céline Dion, **Freddie King** as Jack (previously offstage understudy), **Cameron Vear** as Cal (previously offstage understudy), **Michael Vinsen** as Victor Garber / Luigi and on-stage background vocalist **Corrine Priest**.
Further casting for Ruth from 19 July is to be announced.
