Louie Spence to star in Swansea Grand Theatre Panto

Swansea Grand Theatre has announced that television celebrity, Dancing on Ice Judge, and West End theatre sensation Louie Spence will star as Spirit of the Beans in this year’s magical family pantomime, Jack and the Beanstalk.
An accomplished dancer and actor, Louie became a household name when he appeared on Sky1's smash-hit series Pineapple Dance Studios.
One of the most flamboyant characters ever to grace a documentary series, he won an army of fans, spring-boarding his own series Louie Spence's Show business, which captivated audiences nationwide.
Louie also appeared on TV as one of the Judges on ITV's Dancing on Ice, organised a wedding on Celebrity Wedding Planner for Channel 5, worked as the Entertainment Correspondent for ITV's Daybreak and last year entered the Big Brother House in Celebrity Big Brother. Louie’s international stardom has seen him voted one of the Top Ten Reality Show Judges in America.
Louie’s work as a professional dancer has seen him tour the world with Take That, E17, 2 Unlimited, Boyzone, Eternal, Björk, Kavanagh, Kim Mazelle and Jocelyn Brown, and he was one of only five professional male dancers to accompany the Spice Girls on their debut Spiceworld tour.
In the West End Louie was part of the original award-winning cast of Miss Saigon, where he helped to create the show’s thrilling acrobatics and went on to perform as Mr Mistoffelees in Cats before joining the Pet Shop Boys musical Closer to Heaven.
Jack and the Beanstalk runs from Friday 11 December 2015 to Sunday 10 January 2016. Tickets, which start from only £11.50, are on sale now and can be booked online at swanseagrand.co.uk or on 01792 475715
