Filipina West End and Broadway star Rachelle Ann Go does it again!

Go won the Best Featured Actress in a Musical award at the 2017 Theater Fans’ Choice Awards for her role as the strong and provocative Gigi van Tranh in the 2014 West End production of ‘Miss Saigon.’

This is the third award she’s received for said role.

On her official Facebook page, Go expressed her gratitude.

She writes, “Hi guys!!! Just want to say THANK YOU for all the support! You guys are the best! Love you all — ShinShin.”

Go is now preparing for her next theater gig as Eliza Schuyler in the West End production of the Broadway hit ‘Hamilton: An American Musical’ by Lin-Manuel Miranda.

‘Miss Saigon’ is also up for two nominations in this year’s Tony Awards: Best Revival of a Musical, and Best Actress in a Musical for Fil-Am actress Eva Nobleza as Kim.
