SIMPLY OUTSTANDING !!!

went to watch with work colleague’s and absolutely loved it. The ending was spectacular and would defiantly watch again. Great good feel factor that we need in society.

DIRTY DANCING

Fantastic !! An amazing show with all the great music, scenery and dancing, a real feel good show. Went Feb 14th 09 with my husband who i think was a bit sceptical but found it fantastic. Would throughly recommend it and love to see it again but even though Harvey was great as Johnny nobody will ever match the brilliant Swayze.

THEATRE IN GENERAL

I came to London for the Matinee performance of Dirty Dancing, this was a Christmas present from one of my children, and I had looked forward to the show since then. I have to say I was very disappointed with the seating & the toilets at the theatre. We sat in the upper circle row D 3 & 4 and although the view was fine, the seats are so cramped I could hardly straighten my leg's in the interval, it really was that uncomfortable & I am not a tall person. The other thing was the queueing at the toilets in the interval, I had to go back to my seat without even going because there was around ten people still in front of me. The toilets were really not very clean either and were quite smelly. I really didn't expect this in a theatre in London, and was very disappointed, I would think that all the money that is taken you should be looking into these matters.

DANCING DIRTY - GREAT FUN!

Enjoyed this! There is always a danger in translating film to the stage, expectations can be high. I could only recollect parts of the film and perhaps that helped. The storyline was easy to pick up and the characters well played, with the exception of Johnny, sorry, but I could not stop picturing PS in my mind! Could have been more big singing numbers. The dancing was fantastic, agile, elastic, spectacular, but that's what the show is about is'nt it? Dancing ... The 'lift' at the end was highly anticipated and was not a disappointment. Only complaint was the audience, there was a lot of unnecessary sniggering and giggles, especially in the love scenes, which spoilt it for me. The Aldwcyh is fabulous and never understand why some people/tourists complain about toilets and leg room in a theatre that is over 100 years old.It's part of the whole theatre-going experience in London, go to the Imax if you want modern day comfort! Went to the Waldorf Hotel for drinks before and after show.
