Proceeds from the evening will go towards the Cancer Fund for Children and further treatment for Ballymoney girl Aaliyah Cochrane.
Emma-Louise said: “Three years ago we held a Strictly Come Dancing show to help Aaliyah get to Panama for stem cell therapy.
“It was amazing and the support we received was out of this world. We raised £10,000 and the results have been wonderful.

“With our show, along with Cancer Fund for Children - something we hold dear to our hearts for many personal reasons - we are aiming to raise funds to help children like Aaliyah and those vulnerable kids who lost out on much needed one-to-one care.
“We want to give back to those who helped us and those in need, so please come and support us.
“We are by no means professional dancers but we are trying hard, along with many other acts and our brilliant jazz band, to put on a memorable night.”
