The Australian-born choreographer, 52, will not perform on Saturdays due to his commitments on the BBC1 show.

Craig said: “I am so pleased to be returning to the West End, especially to a role I had such a brilliant time performing on tour. Miss Hannigan is evil, sassy and fab-u-lous.

“It will be a real challenge for me not to take her man-hungry, wicked ways to the Strictly judging panel each Saturday night - though I am sure my fellow judges will keep me in check.”

He added: “I can’t wait to get started.”
