Strictly Come Dancing star and international dance champion Nikita Kuzmin has announced the full cast for his highly anticipated first-ever solo tour, Midnight Dancer. The production will tour across the UK and Ireland, opening on 8 March 2025 and running until 24 May.
Joining Kuzmin on stage will be an ensemble of world-class dancers, including Sophie Baker, Thomas Charles, Lowri Hamilton, Samuel Lake, Charlotte Lee, Zara Liu, Seamus Mcintosh, Daniel Rae, and Andreea Toma. The production will also feature vocalist Rebecca Lisewski, whose credits include Mamma Mia! in the West End and Cabaret in London’s Playhouse Theatre.
Described as a fairytale ball like no other, Midnight Dancer follows the highs and lows of a classic romance story, complete with dazzling costumes, high-energy choreography, and anthemic dance floor hits. Audiences will be taken on an emotional journey as two star-crossed lovers navigate love, heartbreak, and fate—culminating in a masked ball where their future hangs in the balance.
Meet the cast
Kuzmin, who has become a fan-favourite on Strictly Come Dancing since joining in 2021, is collaborating with the creative team behind Oti Mabuse and Johannes Radebe’s acclaimed stage shows. The production boasts creative direction by Tom Jackson Greaves, set and lighting design by Andrew Exeter, music production by Ian Masterson, costume design by Rachael Ryan, sound design by James Crichton, and production management by James Anderton.
Presented by ROYO, Cuffe & Taylor, and Live Nation, Midnight Dancer promises to showcase Kuzmin’s versatility and charisma beyond the television dance floor. Speaking about the project, Kuzmin expressed his excitement about bringing his vision to audiences across the UK and Ireland: “This show is a dream come true—bringing together my love for storytelling and dance in a spectacular way.”
The tour will visit major venues including London’s Peacock Theatre, Edinburgh Playhouse, and Dublin’s Bord Gáis Energy Theatre, among others. Full tour dates and tickets are available at Nikita Kuzmin Midnight Dancer – UK Tour.
