Richard Winsor will star in a new 2019 autumn tour of Saturday Night Fever.

Last year Winsor, who has had an illustrious career working with choreographer Matthew Bourne and on the hit TV show Casualty, stepped into the dancing shoes of Tony Manero when he took on the lead role in the 2018 tour of Saturday Night Fever.

We chatted exclusively to Winsor before he began rehearsals for the 2018 tour:

The 2019 tour is directed and produced by Bill Kenwright, with brand new choreography by Bill Deamer, designs by Gary McCaan, lighting by Nick Richings, and sound by Dan Samson.

Opening at the New Victoria Theatre, Woking from 6 August 2019, the nationwide tour will then continue to strut its way to Malvern, Southampton, Leeds, Nottingham, Chester, Coventry, Cheltenham, Belfast, Aberdeen and Milton Keynes.

Further casting for the tour is to be announced.
