Yes - seems to have been very well received and I've read mentions/(and a complaint) of venues being sold out.

Loved the show tonight! I haven't posted for months if not years but hope all the Angels are well!
Brendan was my Christmas Present tonight and a very worthy one
Such charisma and style... oh... and not a bad dancer

I was at the Sage last night and had an amazing time, I've been to the Sage for a few concerts and the sound quality is second to none!
Brendan knows how to put on a show and everyone was on their feet by the last couple of dances. His interaction with the audience is great, and he made a few fans night during the Q&A section.
Brendan couldn't have picked a better replacement for Fauve than Aliona, they dance together so well!
Crystal, Melanie, Patrick and Scott were great too. As were the singers Iain, Julie backed by Barry and his amazing musicians.
I hope it comes across, I really really enjoyed it

I had such a great night at the showin Manchester yesterday. We started off with a meal at Wagamamas, turned round and noticed Brendan and a few of the cast sat three tables away. Perfect start to the evening though we were too shy to approach them (didn't feel quite right as they were having a quiet moment before the show) but we did say hi to them as they passed our table leaving the restaurant.
We had front row seats and it turned out to be a bit of a strange set up at the opera house. There was a stage high curtain in front of us, then the stage was about 1.5m behind that. The show itself was amazing. Great performances from all the dancers, singers and band. Aliona fitted in perfectly, seemed to have much cleaner lines than Fauve. Loved all the dances, the cape off was wonderful, though not quite the same when you don't feel the whoosh of the cape over your head when the front row is a bit closer. Everyone was up on their feet for the Dirty Dancing routine (after hysterical laughter at his American accent whilst pretending to be Jonny!) and the end of the jive. Standing ovation all around. The Q&A session was fun, Brendan was in the crowd giving birthday kisses and letting people feel his bum (very jealous but I got my birthday kiss last year so can't complain too much)
There where a couple of mishaps. Brendan's chair tipped backwards during the girls v boys routine (not sure if it was planned as he made it look graceful and recovered quickly but he didn't half look shocked!) Melanie and Patrick also ended up on the floor at one point, not sure what happened there but they looked a bit shock up and it took them a bit or get back into the routine.
All in all a great night's entertainment. If you can get tickets do so, you won't regret it - his charisma, enthusiasm and wonderful choreography will leave you with a huge smile of your face.

Brendans show in Cardiff was fantastic it was a full house and everyone around me seemed to be enjoying themselves.Brendan had a brilliant rapport with the audience and the rest of the cast and he got us all up dancing at the end
Aliona and Brendan's dancing was superb the other dancers were good but when Aliona and Brendan danced I couldnt take my eyes off them
To all of you who have tickets for upcoming nights you will have an unforgettable time.

You are absolutely right. Just home from the show in Oxford. It was fantastic. Excellent entertainment, fabulous music and exquisite dancing!
Another great review from last Wednesday at Ipswich.

Another review - this time with Sophie Ellis-Bextor dropping in to give the audience a special treat of her Charleston with Brendan.

Still going down well - this time in Poole.
The pushing over of Brendan and his chair in the boys/girls battle is part of the routine.

Saw the show myself, and I and the rest of the 2000 strong sell-out audience (as far as I could tell) were very entertained.
First Strictly related show I have seen.

And the review of the final night - it sounds like it was quite emotional. The tour has certainly been a great success:

You can breathe a sigh of relief someone who was there confirms it's not Alison
What do we think of his pairing with Sunetra? I thought she seemed to be ok in the dance - just hope they get on well together! Lovely to see him back!
