ELF THE MUSICAL Cast Announcement
📣🌟 ELF-THE MUSICAL CAST ANNOUNCEMENT🌟📣
Buddy The Elf: The eccentric human raised by Santa's elves, will be performed by Essex’s own Jake Quickenden. The actor, singer and X-Factor contestant is best known for winning the 2018 ‘Dancing on Ice’ and becoming runner-up in the 2014 ‘I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here’.
Jovie: The unenthusiastic Department Store worker who captures Buddy’s heart, will be played by Ipswich’s very own Jade Mayjean. The singer/songwriter found fame in her early 20s on BBC’s The Voice where she secured Kylie Minogue as her mentor and performed to millions of national TV viewers week after week. Jade went on to release her album 20Sixty.
Walter Hobbs: Distinguished actor of TV and stage, Gary Turner, will take the role of Walter Hobbs, the cynical business executive who is revealed as Buddy's biological father. Gary is best known for his role as the good-looking chef, Carlos Diaz in ITV’s Emmerdale, which he played from 2000 to 2004. The 55-year-old has since starred in a variety of TV, film and stage roles from including Sy Spector in ‘Bodyguard the Musical’ and Errol Flynn in ‘A Question of Errol Flynn’.
