Who Played Uncle Willie in High Society

Uncle Willie is a role in High Society, a musical that opened West End in 2026.

At their waterfront estate in Oyster Bay, the Lord family prepares for a lavish wedding weekend. The reluctant bride-to-be, famed socialite Tracy Lord, bristles when her playful ex-husband Dexter arrives to stir up trouble. Juggling a precocious younger sister, an uninspiring fiancé, a pesky ex-husband, a harried mother, a carousing uncle, and a pair of snooping reporters, Tracy struggles to make sense of her romantic life. The score is packed with Cole Porter standards, including “Ridin’ High,” “She’s Got That Thing,” “True Love,” “Just One Of Those Things,” “Let’s Misbehave,” “It’s All Right With Me,” and “Well, Did You Evah?”
