Singaporean actress Victoria Chen will make her Royal Shakespeare Company debut in the West End production of My Neighbour Totoro that's set to run from Mar 8 to Nov 2 at the Gillian Lynne Theatre in London.
She will be playing the character Mei in this stage adaptation of the 1988 Studio Ghibli animated film. It is a tale of sisters Satsuki and Mei who move to a new home in the countryside where Mei stumbles upon mystical creatures as well as a forest guardian whom she names Totoro.
Chen will be joining the company as a new cast member following the play’s previous successful runs in 2022 and 2023.
The actress announced her casting on Instagram on Wednesday (Jan 29) and said: “In case my mother hasn’t told you yet, her daughter finally got a job. HUAT AH!”
