I'm A Celebrity contestant
Sheila Ferguson is to hit the stage in Birmingham playing a seventies diva in the musical Boogie Wonderland.
Sheila, who was voted out the series despite earning the group dinner after facing crocodiles in her Bushtucker Challenge, will be on stage at the Alexandra Theatre in March.
The former lead singer of The Three Degrees emerged from the Australian jungle after facing bugs, quicksand and the wrath of her fellow contestants.
Now Sheila is swapping her jungle fatigues for the glitz of the disco to perform hits such as Everybody Dance, Ain't No Stopping Us Now, Lady Marmalade, Dance to the Music, Car Wash and I Will Survive.
She will be joined by special guest Billy Lewis, an original member of The Drifters for the one night show on March 9.
Sheila will be following in the footsteps of I'm A Celebrity winner Joe Pasquale who is leading the cast of the Hippodrome pantomime Jack and the Beanstalk from Tuesday.
