This is an exclusive chance to get up close and personal with 2019 Strictly finalist and Mr Showbusiness himself ‐ Anton Du Beke, alongside a powerhouse band, guest vocalist Lance Ellington and dancer.

Anton is one of the most instantly recognisable dancers today, best known for BBC's Strictly Come Dancing, on which he has featured since its conception, originally as a dancer and now as a judge on the latest season.

His debut album reached the Top 20; his debut novel, One Enchanted Evening, was an instant Sunday Times Bestseller and he continues to waltz all over the country with his sell out dance tours.

He told us: “An Audience with Anton Du Beke is going to be an intimate evening with myself, my wonderful band and my very good friend Lance Ellington.

“I’m going to tell you about my career and life – you can ask me any question you like – and we’re going to do it with song and dance. It’s going to be a great night!

"I have so many wonderful Strictly memories, of which I shall talk about on the tour, but a couple of highlights are the moment I had with Brucie when we did Me and My Shadow, and when I opened the show on Musicals week with a great ensemble piece that I sang, it was called Anything Can Happen On The Strictly Stage. I absolutely loved that moment!

"I’ve also had many classic moments with my wonderful partners, whether it’s falling down with Ruth Langsford at the end of the Paso Doble, flying Anne Widdecombe in or throwing her across the floor and skidding, performing the Viennese Waltz with Emma Barton or dancing with Katie Derham and making it to the final.

"I’ve had so many incredible moments on Strictly and I can’t wait to share them with you at An Audience with Anton Du Beke.”

A household name and all-round entertainer, Anton will bring all the wit, charm and style he's famous for to theatres this May.
