Sheridan Smith and Jason Donovan will appear on the Britain’s Got Talent 2019 live shows, it’s been reported.
The pair are set to sing a medley of hits from their upcoming production of hit West End musical Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
The show will open the Palladium on June 27 for an 11-week engagement and star screen and stage actress Sheridan Smith in the role of narrator while Jason Donovan – who previously played Joseph at the Palladium in the 1990s – will take on the role of Pharaoh.
An insider told The Sun newspaper: “It will be the first time Sheridan has performed songs from the musical publicly, so it’s a coup for ITV. Bosses expect decent ratings.”
