Williams said: “The Strictly tour means more sequins – lots and lots of sequins! I couldn’t think of a better way to end this fab experience. I can’t wait to dance in arenas across the country and meet all the fans that have supported my journey.”
The West End actor recently defended his place on show after wowing the judges with his jaw-dropping performances alongisde pro-partner Nikita Kuzmin.
The actor has faced criticism that he is over-qualified to perform alongside amateur celebrities due to his musical theatre background.
He spoke to Manchester Evening News in the run-up to his Halloween-themed dance on 28 October.
“Anybody who ever saw me in Everybody’s Talking About Jamie knows I didn’t do a Salsa or Tango there on stage.
“I hope that by watching the show, people can see that I am not perfect and that I have so much to learn. When I first started, I didn’t even realise that Latin and ballroom were two different things,” he said.
He added: “Quite frankly, I was asked to be on this show just like everyone else so I deserve to be here and I am working just as hard as everyone else.”
The upcoming 2024 tour opens at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena on 19 January and heads to the likes of Sheffield, Newcastle, Glasgow, Liverpool and Manchester
It’ll then finish up on 11 February after a number of shows at London’s O2 Arena.
