We always knew Dancing with The Stars was too big for television. Now, in what has to be the most anticipated TV show tour since H.R. Pufnstuf on Ice, the ABC series is heading across America in a live arena show featuring some-- but not all-- of the favorite contestants from three seasons.
The tour is scheduled to kick off in San Diego on December 19th and end on February 11th in Atlantic City. Sorry, no Jerry Springer. No Sara Evans. But you can expect Joey McIntyre paired up with Kym Johnson, Drew Lachey and Cheryl Burke, Joey Lawrence and Edyta Sliwinska, Willa Ford and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Lisa Rinna with Louis Van Amstel, and Lisa's husband Harry Hamlin dancing with Karina Smirnoff. No Evander Holyfield, either. But at least Mario Lopez is sitting it out.
The show will feature a recreation of the television show's stage, and a live orchestra to accompany the dancers. Wake up the folks and click here for ticket information.

Staples Center? Really? Isn't that a bit of a large venue??? I mean, don't get me wrong, I love DWTS, but I can't see how it would be enjoyable to watch them from sitting atop an arena.

actually, the floor will be table seating (4 to a table) and then it will sell the lower bowl only...
