Loads of my friends have seen it and said the dancing was fantastic, it's coming to where I live very soon.

I know Gary Wright and Vicky Burke were in it at one point (great couple), don't know if they still are though.

And Danny Last (my friend's ex-boyfriend) and Jodie Binsteed, runners up in Strictly Dance Fever series one are still touring in it.

I think it's well worth going to see, I've pretty much heard nothing but praise for the show.

It was on In Croydon last year and I heard nothing but praise about it .

In fact a number of my Dance class friends went independently of each other and were amazed to meet in the foyer

Just wish I'd gone !!!!!!

I went to see it in Bristol last year. In fact a group of us went and that was my hen outing as I didn't want to go out and get drunk, so we had the morning shopping and saw strictly ballroom in the afternoon (we were in the front row so had a fantastic view). Thoroughly enjoyed it. My biggest disappointment was the compere. It was Lionel Blair and I cannot stand him. The dancing was terrific though

My best friend said the same, she said it seemed like he was aiming it at an older target audience rather than for all ages.

I loved it! It's well worth going to see if you enjoy ballroom.

Had forgotten about Lionel Blair. He was awful but, fortunately,was only a small part of it.

Lionel Blair came into my work today, the show is opening in my town this evening and he paid us a visit to buy a rather fetching blue sweater.

A colleague of mine is off to see the show tonight, I'm looking forward to hearing what she thinks of it.

Thanks Nancy!
I'd have loved to go and see it. Unfortunately, I'll be in France visiting my family on those dates! Oh well!

That's a real shame.

I happen to be lucky on that week.
