Lola’s Library, the popular musical on Resilient Lady, has welcomed a new leading performer, with Livi Rose stepping into the role of Lola, taking over from Lexi. She becomes only the fourth actor to play the part since the show debuted in 2023. That is notable, as the role is rarely recast despite multiple rotating casts of Lola’s Library and its companion production, Booked.

Meet Livi (Lola Number 4)

Livi Rose is a 27 year old actor, singer, dancer, and fitness instructor from Long Island, New York. She graduated from Long Island University with a BFA in Musical Theater. When she is not on stage, Livi can be found teaching at SoulCycle or Barry’s, balancing performance with her work as a fitness instructor.

She recently made her Off Broadway debut in My True Love Musical, which ran for a month at The Players Theatre in the West Village. She also made her regional theatre debut at Cape Fear Regional Theatre in North Carolina as Doralee in 9 to 5, the role made famous by Dolly Parton.

Livi has also performed the National Anthem for the Monster Jam Triple Threat Series East Tour since 2019, singing in major arenas across the country including UBS Arena, Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Prudential Center, Dunkin’ Donuts Center, PPL Center, Nissan Stadium, and MetLife Stadium.

Booking the role of Lola in Lola’s Library marks her first time stepping onto a cruise ship. She has described the opportunity as a dream come true and a moment she is deeply grateful for.

Meet the New Mary and Dewey

Charis Vaughn, a familiar face to many Virgin Voyages fans, steps into the role of Mary. She has previously appeared in Another Rose and Persephone, and now brings her experience and stage presence to Lola’s Library as the sharp and witty maid.

Joining her is newcomer Jonny Stranks as Dewey. Jonny is best known as a previous winner of Britain’s Got Talent, and now takes on the role of Lola’s loyal and quick thinking sidekick aboard Resilient Lady.

About Lola’s Library

Lola’s Library is an immersive cabaret created by No Ceilings Entertainment. It debuted with Resilient Lady in May 2023 and remains exclusive to the ship at the time of writing.

The show runs for around 75 minutes in The Manor and blends live vocals, dance, acrobatics, and comedy. The story unfolds across three chapters taken from Lola’s “book collection,” each exploring a different genre such as fairy tales, crime, and horror.

Lola serves as the host, guiding the audience through each chapter. She shares the stage with Mary, the quick witted maid, and Dewey, her loyal and knowledgeable sidekick. Together, they shape the tone of the evening and keep the pace moving between genres.

Lola’s world has also expanded into Booked, a related production that builds on the characters and themes introduced in Lola’s Library. Several former Lolas have appeared in Booked, giving audiences a chance to see different interpretations of the character beyond the original show format.
