Prenger, 29, emerged as a surprise winner, with Lloyd Webber and the musical's producer Cameron Mackintosh making it clear they preferred finalist Jessie Buckley.

The one hundred plus cast and orchestra will bring to life Charles Dickens's timeless characters with its ever-popular story of the boy who asked for more.

Rowan Atkinson stars as Fagin, the criminal mastermind who teaches a gang of children how to pick a pocket or two in exchange for a roof over their heads.
