The Grand Theatre in Blackpool, for its main summer show, will stage a celebration of the music from Hollywood’s Golden era, Puttin’ On The Ritz, starring Strictly Come Dancing’s Katya Virshilas and Jared Murillo.

A cast of West End performers recreate the classic songs live on stage with glamorous costumes and ballroom dancing skills.

With music from Cole Porter, George Gershwin and Irving Berlin, songs in the show will include "Cheek to Cheek", "Alexander’s Rag Time Band", "Birth of the Blues", "Swanee|, "Night and Day", "I Got Rhythm", "Easter Parade" and of course "Puttin’On The Ritz".
