The TV personality, 41, will star as Mama Morton in the UK and Ireland tour of the international smash-hit production, taking over the role from singer Sheila Ferguson. Collins, who rose to fame in The Only Way Is Essex , has also appeared on I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here!, Celebrity Big Brother and Dancing On Ice.

She will bring the razzle dazzle to the tour at the Sunderland Empire from 31 May, with further shows in Cardiff, Blackpool, Sheffield, Norwich and Oxford."She's an undeniable force both on and off stage, and we can't wait to see her portrayal of Mama Morton on tour," he added."Audiences across the country are in for a treat."She studied dance and won a place at the renowned Sylvia Young Theatre School, before finding fame on TOWIE.

Gemma Collins conquered Chicago on her stage debut, now she’s after New York

My sympathies to all her fellow cast, crew, and house staff at every venue if she's going to be a fucking diva the whole tour. Seriously this sort of thing is a team effort and from what I've seen of her before she doesn't come across in the slightest as a team player. 🙄

KatieBoyer she's going to Norwich!! 😂😂

🙄🙄

Anyone who buys a ticket only has themselves to blame.

WTF?

The theatre industry must be really at rock bottom if she's the best they can sign up. Covid has really struck it sideways!

There's no talent in the uk anymore

So how long before she realises she has to put some effort in and walks away so that a talented performer can earn a living

Bottom of the barrel.

Increase in refunds in those shows I’d guess

Max2 weeks then she will have an excuse and pull out.
