She is the fourth star from the ITV2 programme to appear in pantomime following in the footsteps of Harry Derbridge, Mario Falcone and Dan Osborne.

Joining her on stage will be some of the actors from last year’s show including Tom Hogan who has secured the part as one of the ugly sister’s. Children from The Kent School of Dance will make up some of the supporting cast.

It is produced by Trio Entertainment Ltd, the same company which brought the town Aladdin in 2012 and Snow White last year.

A spokesman said: “She is looking forward to taking to the stage and can’t wait to be creating pantomime magic for all the families this Christmas.

“She has also hinted that she would be happy to follow in the footsteps of her other TOWIE co-star, Joey Essex, and brave a trip into the I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here jungle.”

It is rumoured Abi was offered £25,000 to go into the last series but admitted: “Because of filming and TOWIE at the time it wasn’t the right time but you never know.”

Performances will run from Thursday, December 18 until Monday, December 23.
