Want to see one of the stars of the BBC’s hugely popular Strictly take to the dance floor? How about three?
Kevin Clifton will headline Burn the Floor with one of the show’s newcomers, Graziano Di Prima, and Johannes Radabe, as it comes to three Kent theatres.
Kevin is the current Strictly champion, having swept to victory before Christmas with celebrity partner Stacey Dooley.
He said: “It was such an emotional, amazing night for us and I’m so proud of Stacey. It still sounds so strange being called a Strictly winner when I am so used to being called runner-up.
“We really didn’t think we were going to win, so we just set out to enjoy ourselves.”
“I thought I would always be known as runner-up to be honest - I never thought I would ever actually win, so I’m incredibly happy.”
The professional dancer, who has performed in Burn the Floor on Broadway, the West End, and around the world, credits the live ballroom stage show with changing him as a performer.
“Burn The Floor is the show that ignited a spark in me and changed me forever as a performer,” added Kevin.
The show will feature 14 dancers, two vocalists, and four musicians.
It will be at Margate Winter Gardens on Friday, April 26, Assembly Hall Theatre in Tunbridge Wells on Friday, May 31, and the Orchard Theatre, Dartford on Saturday, June 1.
