Popular 'Home and Away' star Ray Meagher is set to take a six-month break from the soap.
According to the Herald Sun, Meagher, who plays Alf Stewart in the show, intends to travel to London to star in a West End production during his time off.
Meagher said: "[Home and Away] have very generously allowed me to do 'Priscilla' in the West End from September 20 roughly until early March."
"I did two weeks [as Bob] in Sydney when Michael Caton wanted to have a rest, and that is when the producers said, 'Do you want to do this in London?'."
"I think the funniest thing for me is a bloke from the bush, who cannot sing or dance, has been asked to do a musical in the West End. That appeals to my perverse sense of humour."
