Anton Du Beke to tour with Summer Strallen

Posted on October 9, 2013

Anton Du Beke’s new production Ballroom To Broadway, which he presents without long-term dance partner Erin Boag, will embark on a tour of the UK and Ireland in early 2014, presented by Raymond Gubbay.

Presenting and performing a collection of numbers from the golden age of musicals, Anton will be joined on stage by special guest West End star Summer Strallen (Top Hat, Love Never Dies and The Sound of Music), singer Lance Ellington, world-class ensemble dancers including Faye Huddleston (Burn The Floor) and the Raymond Gubbay Big Band Orchestra conducted by Richard Balcombe.

Said Anton: “I can’t wait to get back out on the road again. Ballroom To Broadway is going to be a great show and I look forward to seeing dance fans of all ages as we make our way around the country.”

Ballroom To Broadway will feature such classic hits as “Anything Goes”, “Rhythm of Life”, “Impossible Dream”, “Hushabye Mountain” and “Begin The Beguine”.
