PETALING JAYA, Feb 11 — Malaysian singer and performer Aaron Teoh has landed the role of Prince Chulalongkorn in the upcoming UK tour of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s beloved musical The King and I.

The London-based theatre practitioner will be performing alongside Jose Llana who plays the King and Annalene Beechey as Miss Anna.

Teoh takes over the role of Prince Chulalongkorn, the King of Siam’s heir-designate, from fellow Malaysian Jon Chew, a former journalist turned actor.

Currently back in Malaysia for a short break, Teoh has been in musical theatre productions such as PAN Productions’ Merrily We Roll Along and has sung with the WVC Jazz Ensemble for its Shakespeare’s Sonnet showcase.
