The Barbican.  Will never happen but should.

The auditionees have been reduced to the final 3 for Kim: Rachelle Ann Go, Aicelle Santos and Frencheska Farr.

Party Pilipinas did a Miss Saigon medley with the 3 of them plus another girl:
Aicelle is the first one singing (Movie in My Mind), she has short hair and a sleeveless dress
Frencheska is the second one singing (finishing off Gigi's part of MIMM), in the 3/4 sleeve dress
Rachelle I think couldn't be there that day so she pops up on the screen singing the last of MIMM and I think most of Sun & Moon

Thought the people on the board would like to see the contenders for Kim + her understudies

Personally my vote is for Rachelle Ann Go! But they all sound great!

[johartuk]

Yes, I'd also go with Rachelle.  I also liked the girl who sang before her (the one we don't have a name for).  Having said that, they're all good and I wouldn't like to be having to make that decision.  Good Luck to whoever gets it.

The other girl is Rita Iringan, she auditioned too and got at least one callback but obviously didn't get as far as the others. I think all 3 will be Kim in the show, it's just a question of who's principal and who's alternate/understudy.

Also I don't think the revival will be at least for a few months, Rachelle's only just started in Tarzan in Manila and I haven't heard any audition announcements for the other roles.

Spring 2014 has been rumoured for Miss Saigon, I believe it's going into the Prince Edward,

Wherever and whenever it's going to be on, I wish they'd get on with telling us.

Jersey Boys transferring to Piccadily in March 2014, so a Spring/Summer opening for Miss Saigon is possible

[ABowlerHat]

I expect they'll announce it by the end of summer and have a huge build up.
