Tom Allen commented: “I saw this show when it first opened and I loved it so much I had to see it again almost immediately. The laughs and camp spoofing are addictive and exactly what the world needs right now. I am beyond honoured to be joining this extremely talented cast and can't wait to come aboard for my life boat drill! ...wait, they do have enough lifeboats right?”

Titanique is a hysterical musical comedy featuring all your favourite Celine Dion hits, including "My Heart Will Go On" and "All by Myself". Co-written by Tye Blue, Marla Mindelle, and Constantine Rousouli, this production takes the film Titanic and retells the famous love story through the songs of Celine Dion. The musical made its debut in London's West End in December 2024, following huge success on Broadway and in Paris, Sydney, Montreal, and Toronto.

He will join the current cast which consists of Luke Bayer (Everybody’s Talking About Jamie) as Jack, Richard Carson (Les Misérables) as Cal, Ryan Carter (Bat Out Of Hell) as The Iceberg, Rose Galbraith (13 Going on 30) as Rose, Astrid Harris (Titaníque – Théâtre du Lido, Paris) as Céline Dion, Carl Mullaney (La Cage Aux Folles) as Ruth, Michael Vinsen (The Book of Mormon) as Victor Garber / Luigi and Charlotte Wakefield (Spring Awakening) as Molly Brown.

Completing the company are on-stage background vocalists Corrine Priest (Sister Act The Musical), Madison Swan (We Will Rock You) and Damien Winchester (Aladdin), offstage understudies Freddie King (Heathers) and Caitlin Tipping (SIX The Musical), and standby David Ouch (Moulin Rouge! The Musical).

Titanique is currently booking at Criterion Theatre to 7 June 2026.
