Milton Keynes Theatre will host the first run of a UK tour of the musical Miss Saigon in April 2026.
Since its London premiere in 1989, Cameron Mackintosh’s original production of Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg’s epic musical Miss Saigon has enjoyed great success. The original Broadway production opened in 1991 and played for nearly ten years with its 4,097 performances attended by more than 6.3 million people.
Cameron’s latest London production of Miss Saigon opened in London in May 2014 to record-breaking advance sales and critical acclaim, followed by a UK tour in 2017. During this run, in 2016, the spectacular 25th Anniversary Gala Performance of this timeless musical, featuring appearances by the original cast, including Jonathan Pryce and Lea Salonga, took place and was filmed for television and cinema and continues to be shown around the world.
The new 2026 tour of Miss Saigon will put in a week of shows at Milton Keynes Theatre, running from 7 April 2026 until 11 April. Tickets are on sale NOW at ATGTICKETS.COM/MiltonKeynes.
Seann Miley Moore (X Factor UK; Miss Saigon, International Tour; Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Australian Tour) will take part in their celebrated role as The Engineer following acclaimed performances across an international tour.
Recent Brit School graduate Julianne Pundan has also been cast and will be making her professional debut as Kim alongside actor and singer Jack Kane (who has starred in Dragonheart Vengeance and BBC/HBO series Years and Years) as Chris.
Dom Hartley-Harris, recently seen in the West End as George Washington in Hamilton and on tour as Curtis Taylor Jr. in Dreamgirls, is John, Emily Langham (Singin’ in the Rain International Tour; Hello, Dolly! London Palladium; The Witches, National Theatre) is Ellen.
Of the new production, Cameron Mackintosh said, “Since we first announced this new production, I have been genuinely delighted at the enthusiasm of the public determined not to miss SAIGON, with tickets flying out of the Box Office and several of the announced cities already nearly sold out.
“We have now completed our search for a really fantastic cast, full of exciting discoveries, that will bring Boublil and Schönberg’s extraordinary, powerful musical back to thrilling life. I can’t wait to see MISS SAIGON reborn again.”
The plot of the musical takes place in the last days of the Vietnam War, when 17-year-old Kim is forced to work in a Saigon bar run by a notorious character known as The Engineer.
There, she meets and falls in love with an American GI named Chris, but they are torn apart by the fall of Saigon. For 3 years, Kim goes on an epic journey of survival to find her way back to Chris, who has no idea he’s fathered a son.
Luton Town goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski has been sold to Charlton Athletic for an undisclosed fee.
The 32-year-old Belgian goalkeeper has signed a three year contract to join Charlton, who were promoted after winning the League One play-offs in May.
Kaminski moves after two years at Kenilworth Road, having joined Luton in 2023 from Blackburn Rovers after they won promotion to the Premier League.
In his time with the club, Kaminski made 85 appearances in all competitions, missing just one league game in his two seasons in Bedfordshire.
Among his accolades at Luton included winning the Premier League Save of the Month Award in November 2023 for a fine double stop in a win over Crystal Palace, with that save also later shortlisted for the Premier League’s Save of the Season award.
In a social media post saying goodbye, Kaminski thanked everyone at Luton for their time with him.
He said, “Time to say goodbye to a club that will always have a place in my heart.
“These past two seasons have been full of challengers. There were tough moments, no doubt, but also memories I’ll carry with me forever. Through it all, what stood out was the incredible support of the fans.
“Even when things didn’t go our way, your passion never faded. You kept believing, kept pushing, kept showing up. That’s what makes this club special and I truly believe Luton Town will be back where it belongs very soon.
“Thank you to my teammates, the staff and everyone behind the scenes. Until next time, Hatters.”
Charlton Manager Nathan Jones told the Addicks’ website that he felt Kaminski was an excellent upgrade in the goalkeeper position.
He said, “I’m very pleased because it’s a wonderful signing. Thomas was outstanding for Luton in the Premier League and he was outstanding last season in the Championship as well. For me, he’s one of the best goalkeepers in the division. We wanted to strengthen on all levels and improve every department, and we feel that the signing of Thomas does that.”

MK Dons have confirmed they will be playing a home friendly against Peterborough United rather than one against Bristol City as previously planned.
The Dons will be playing the League One side in a friendly on July 22nd with a 7:30pm kick-off time, with Posh taking the slot previously occupied by Bristol City.
The match will be the Dons’ only pre-season friendly at Stadium MK, with their other commitments booked ahead of the season starting on August 2nd all taking place away from home.
MK Dons will still have a match against Bristol City coming up, with the Dons scheduled to visit the Robins’ Ashton Gate stadium in the Carabao Cup in early August.
In a brief statement, the Dons said, “MK Dons would like to thank Peterborough United for their cooperation and providing such a quick resolution.”
The match will be the Dons’ first meeting with Peterborough since the two sides were in League One in the 2022/23 season.
Peterborough finished 18th in League One last season but did achieve success in the EFL Trophy, with Posh beating League One’s runaway champions Birmingham City 2-0 at Wembley in the Vertu Trophy final to win the competition for the second season in a row.
In their news confirming the fixture change, MK Dons confirmed that tickets already purchased for the original opposition remain valid, meaning those who’d already secured their seat for the game won’t have to take further action. Supporters who wish to return tickets will be entitled to a refund and can visit the Stadium MK box office to do so.
Bristol City confirmed the news on their end with a statement by saying, “Following the Carabao Cup draw last week, both clubs have agreed the friendly match between City and MK Dons will no longer take place on Tuesday, July 22nd.
“Any supporters who have purchased coach tickets will be entitled to a refund and can contact the club to receive this.”
