Stacey Dooley shouted her pride for her man Kevin Clifton as she watched him perform on stage in his new show. The former Strictly Come Dancing professional dancer is continuing to flourish in his musical theatre career with a role in the new musical adaptation of Strictly Ballroom.
Kevin, who starred in the hit BBC One dance show from 2013 to 2019, has taken on the role of hero Scott Hastings in the reimaging of Baz Luhrmann's award-winning global film phenomenon. He appears in the show, which is being directed by Strictly judge Craig Revel Horwood, opposite Maisie Smith who has taken on the role of enthusiastic beginner Fran.
The nationwide tour kicked off in Plymouth last month before moving on to the Bromley Church Theatre where a press night was held on Wednesday night (October 5). Stacey was among those cheering Kevin and Maisie on. She was joined my Maisie's boyfriend, The Wanted star Max George, and many of the professional dancers from Strictly including Alijaz Skorjanec, Jowita Przystal and Nancy Xu.
