    Come out of the main door, turn left up Drury Lane (where the Muffin Man lives!) , and turn first left into Tavistock St. The stage door is marked, its on the left about 10m down.

    Hi Dilly :)

    There's also a review in todays Independent (sorry for the lack of a link) and the show is rated as 4 stars out of 5. Why it never got 5/5 I don't know, as the reviewer seemed to love every minute of it :)

    I was listening to this interview with Vincent & Flavia on Radio 2 yesterday and thought of you Stu. :)

    Barbara Windsor (interviewer) is talking about the reviews they are getting and said that it is unbelievable for them to be getting 4**** reviews in the West End as it is practically unheard of for a dance show to get 4 Stars :)

    It is a good interview and worth a listen.... (From about 1hr 30 mins)

    Just been to see it again (for the 4th time). First time in London and it was interesting to see the changes. More dancers, some of the dancers have changed, different costumes, different choreography in places and I could have sworn some of the music was different too, but not sure about that. Loved it though.:D Might have to book to see it again when it goes out on tour.

    We met with Vincent and Flavia at the stage door afterwards and they were lovely, as usual, even though they both had cars waiting to take them home. Lots of cuddles from Vincent which was a great end to the evening lol.:D

    Glad you enjoyed it AGAIN :D You're MT count is creeping up to the same level as some of us others now ;)

    I love the changes and the new dancers/new costumes etc have kept it fresh for this year so that people definitely could go and watch it even if seen it before :) Glad you got to say Hi to them at the end too as it just makes the night that little bit more special :D

    REVIEW written by Bob Nicholls - Midnight Tango :)

    http://www.londontheatreseats.net/midnight-tango/

    "If you want to see the stage set alight with breath-taking action, then don’t miss this pulsating extravaganza. And this show is so well produced that you’ll be thinking you have just arrived in far off Buenos Aires – leaving you and your partner ready for a night of red-blooded Latino dancing!"

    We went on Saturday night and thought it was great. I had reservations about watching an entire show of AT, but I loved how they varied it by flavouring with other dances - there were waltz (vals), cha cha, rumba and samba variations over the AT (that I spotted, anyway) that kept it from getting too samey.

    I was also pleased that all the dancers had interesting, impressive choreography - they are obviously all incredibly talented AT dancers in their own right, not just generic theatre dancers. The skill on show from all of them was brilliant.

    I managed to get Flavia to sign my program afterwards which was lovely, but sadly not Vincent - there was this serious autograph hunter guy who kept blocking me from moving along - even after I took his picture with V&F on his phone for him!

    Glad you enjoyed it and I too loved all the different tango -themed styles they added. My particular favourite is still the Rumba/Tango in Act 2.

    Shame about autograph hunter guy though....:(... You should have ganchoed him one in the ochos! ;)
