Producers at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre have advised that Fred Haig who was performing the role of Chip in On The Town, sustained an injury to his foot which has now been confirmed as a fracture. As a result, Fred has had to withdraw from the production.
Fred’s understudy, Jacob Maynard will now take over the role of Chip for the remainder of the run. Having trained at The Urdang Academy and The Dance Studio, Jacob Maynard has previously appeared in Guys and Dolls (Savoy/UK Tour), Love Me Tender, Five Guys Named Moe (UK Tour), and Ragtime (Pleasance).
On The Town is now playing at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre until 1 July 2017.
