AWARD-winning ballroom dancer Brendan Cole will be debuting his new live tour ‘All Night Long’ to “rowdy” fans at in the Black Country this week.

The Strictly Come Dancing star’s new show will play to a live audience for the first time at Wolverhampton Grand Theatre on Thursday, January 26.

Although this year’s outing marks the ninth time Brendan has taken a tour on the road, the New Zealander said he is feeling nervous about months of hard work coming to fruition.

“I always feel the nerves before the opening show,” Brendan told the News. “When you’ve spent the best part of a year preparing and planning it, and it all comes down to that one night, you just want it to be amazing so it is nerve-wracking.

“The first show is always special.”

Fans can expect to see guest dancers, a 14-piece band, singers, superb choreography, stunning lighting and show-stopping special effects in the first of Brendan’s 42 tour dates across the UK.

He added: “The shows have grown bigger and bigger and we’ve spent a lot of money on costumes for this tour to keep up with the size of the performance.”

Tickets, priced from £28, are on sale from the box office by calling 01902 429212, or online at www.grandtheatre.co.uk.
