Cassidy Janson is heading to the Savoy Theatre to join the smash-hit, critically acclaimed production of Paddington The Musical.
As the production celebrates its first anniversary in the West End, Cassidy is set to step into the role of the iconic, villainous Millicent Clyde from Wednesday 28th October 2026.
Known for her acclaimed Olivier Award-winning performance in & Juliet, as well as star turns in Beautiful: The Carole King Musical and Wicked, Cassidy leads a major new wave of casting as the production enters its second year.
Directed by Luke Sheppard with a book by Jessica Swale and music and lyrics by McFly’s Tom Fletcher, Paddington The Musical continues to draw massive crowds at the Savoy Theatre, with the production currently booking through February 2028.

“THE SECRET IS OUT!
The hardest one to keep!
I cannot wait to return to the West End in this beautiful musical @paddingtonthemusical 🐻🧳🇬🇧
I am beyond thrilled to be part of this incredible piece of British Theatre…my first baddie too! I’ll be giving you my best Millicent Clyde from 28 October ✨ We are deep in rehearsals for the last month and I couldn’t be more in love with this cast and show. It has been the absolute gift that keeps on giving in the rehearsal room every single day.
They are all absolutely utterly BRILLIANT.
Exciting times!
See you at the Savoy Theatre soon!”
