Comedians Samantha Baines and David Morgan have been cast in the forthcoming West End stage production of Magic Mike Live.

The immersive show takes its cue from the Hollywood comedy drama about an all-male revue which starred Channing Tatum.

It has not been confirmed which roles Baines, who was a UK Pun Championships finalist in 2017, and Safeword team captain Morgan will play. But Baines, who is currently in Las Vegas, tweeted: "So I've got a new job ....(Don't worry ladies I will personally inspect all the men's bodies for you )". Morgan tweeted engimatically: "this’ll be exciting."

The cast will also feature Jake Brewer, Harry Carter, Pip Hersee, Sophie Linder-Lee, Jack Manley, Ross Sands, Dean Stewart, Manny Tsakanika, Aaron Witter, Daniel Ralph, Antonio Donadio, Sebastián Melo Taveira, Maxwell Trengove and Brian Siregar.

The show is billed as a 360-degree dance and acrobatic spectacular and is co-directed by Channing Tatum, 

Magic Mike Live will open at the Hippodrome in November
