Local lad is Joseph

Well done to Lee Mead who won 'Any Dream Will Do' tonight and will go on to play the lead role in 'Joseph' in the West End starting in six weeks time. Born and raised in Southend-on-Sea (woohoo!) 25-year-old Lee has been a professional singer and actor for the past five years and has performed in various cabaret shows and on cruise ships. Well deserved I thought - he was my choice out of the three finalists as he had the best voice, stage presence and looked more mature.



I suppose tickets will now be like gold dust, but hopefully I'll get to see it at some point.
