Well... The tour begins tomorrow night in Gateshead's beautiful Sage concert hall on the banks of the Tyne.
Just checked the venue website and only six tickets left which is pretty impressive.
Really looking forward to it!

I'm seeing her a week on Thursday in Nottingham, am so excited! I can't wait to see what is on the setlist. My guess is: - three quarters of the album (definately City of Stars, Anyone Who Had a Heart, Crazy, And I Am Telling You and I really hope she does For Forever) - Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend - People & Don't Rain On My Parade - one or two Cilla songs - I hope she does a song from Legally Blonde and Little Shop, if so I hope its So Much Better and Somewhere thats Green Which would balance out to like 15/16 songs which is the amount I expect it will be. I bet she'll chat alot too.

There's a little chat with her on the Ticketmaster youtube page where she says that Act I will basically be most of the album and then Act II will be surprises (I assume stuff from her stage career), audience participation and lots of fun songs. She also said that she wants a very chilled atmosphere and for everyone to get to know her and have a fun night which I think would be clear from her bubbly personality anyway! I'm going in Cardiff which happens to be closing night, also pretty excited!

I've just watched that interview. Shes so cute! Nice to hear there will be an interval (@ryan can grab a glass of wine!) and nice to hear there will be some surprises and audience interactions! It will be a hoot. She also confirms And I Am Telling You, City of Stars and Addicted to Love are on the setlist.

She looked good in the interview. Had to say I was a bit worried as she has completely disappeared from Instagram after she finished filming the C4 series. But she is looking and sounding great. Liked the bit where she said people usually to go and see the show but this time they will be going to see her which she finds strange. I'm hoping the fun bit in act 2 will be her bringing her dogs on stage all dressed up and performing.

No waterworks hopefully. There is absolutely nothing to cry about.

I've just looked at ticket sales for her Edinburgh show on April 26th and the Stalls and Dress Circle are pretty much full, but the Balcony is alarmingly empty. Especially to the rear. secure.atgtickets.com/online/mapSelect.aspI couldn't get the picture to post, so I just linked it.

To be fair, I wouldn't wish a rear balcony seat on anyone!

If they keep the pre show play list the same for all venues you will approve 😉

The stage
The set list (bad lighting, sorry)
I absolutely loved it!
Great song choices and lots of banter and lots of fun. Lots of swearing too but I think that was the nerves. This was the first time she has come on stage as her.
Bit of a scrum at stage door after and Sheridan ignored her security and spoke with everyone. It's things like that that set her apart from others. A true star!

That looks one hell of a setlist! Even something from Greatest Showman yay! I’m guessing I Will Survive and Happy were ones to join in with? Bit disappointed she’s not doing anything from Legally Blonde but still looks like it’s going to be absolutely fab. What a gem she is with stage door, take note Ms Hope Fletcher!

No the audience participation bits are basically with people in the front few rows. Don't get your hopes up though it's not that exciting.
The highlight of this show is Sheridan being Sheridan!

I love her outfits! Based on Instagram it seems she has two dresses, one for each act and then for certain songs she has add on like a leather jacket, feather boa, fringe jacket etc.

Second show of the tour tonight, Liverpool Philharmonic. Only five tickets unsold, from the seating plan.
I wish I had booked, could have combined it with another viewing of The Last Ship.

Oh that's interesting, Pieces of my Heart and My Man were not on the set list in Liverpool. I wonder if they will be back in tonight or if the set list is any different venue to venue?

Well if Sheridan doesn't stage door beforehand there may be some annoyed people. Just been to collect my ticket and be a wonder. There is about 20 people waiting for her, and a fair few are clearly nothing more than autograph hoarders.
I'm starving, I may stage door after.

Oh she's just fabulous! We've even had an audience member invade the stage and duet with her midway through a song!
