Fans of X-Factor will no doubt remember the name Matt Terry.
He took out the 2016 title and since then has worked with everyone from Ed Sheeran to Enrique Iglesias.
Now he is coming to the New Wimbledon Theatre after it was announced he would play Alex The Lion in the brand-new stage adaptation of 'Madagascar – The Musical'.
"I am so excited to be making my acting debut in the brand-new production, 'Madagascar – The Musical'," Mr Terry said.
"It’s a childhood memory for all of us.
"I can’t wait to be playing the lead role of Alex and bringing him to life.
"Expect incredible costume, set and cast. And the music is immense. It will be an awesome night for everyone to enjoy."
The show will open on July 21 and run until the 28th.
