Strictly star brings new show to Ayr

Residents of Ayr who love the hit BBC television show ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ are in for a treat next year, with the news that one of its star performers will be bringing his show to the town.

Italian dancer Giovanni Pernice won the show last year dancing with Eastenders actress Rose Ayling-Ellis. Now, he is set to launch a spin-off show called ‘Made In Italy’ that will feature live performances by top singers and dancers from the worlds of theatre and ballroom dancing. One of the venues that is set to host this show when it takes to the road is the Gaiety Theatre in Ayr.

Local entertainment venues like this theatre sometimes use poster printing shops that are based within the town if they need high-quality advertising materials for their upcoming shows.

Pernice even paid a visit to the town in person to arrange the show with the theatre and, according to the Ayr Advertiser, the Gaiety has now issued an official statement about it that says:



“Strictly Come Dancing 2021 champion and dance heart-throb invites you to join him on a journey to his homeland for his brand new 2023 production.”




The statement adds that people attending can expect to enjoy a great night of music and dance.

‘Made In Italy’ will be at the Gaiety Theatre on 21st March, 2023.
