    Good Points: Great cast, wonderful choreography and energetic show.


    Bad Points: Taking out the dance routine performed by Alex and her three friends.


    General comments: FLASHDANCE is a brilliant piece of work. I think that when it is further developed for the West End it will be an absolute masterpiece!

    As for the leading lady, she was outstanding, she was certainly well cast for the role! I think her dancing skills were excellent.

    The fact that the show and the leading lady have received rave reviews in my opinion squashes the very unpleasant remarks made in this survey.

    Flashdance the musical - no wonder there were empty seats!!!
    I wouldn't pay to watch it again. Not enough dancing, Alex did more exercises around a chair, and left the dancing to the very end. The lady playing Gloria was a much better dancer than the lead plaing Alex, and she had a much better voice. Couldn't always understand what Alex was saying, her accent was terrible.

    Flashdance was terribly awful. We thought the lead's acting felt phoney and unconvincing. Her dancing was desperately over the top, and her singing was often screechy and over bearing, making her impossible to understand and very uncomfortable to listen too. Certainly not in the class of the original Jennifer ! Many of the songs were completely unmemorable, and the narrative delivery was tacky and corny throughout the show. It was with complete relief when the curtain thumped down ! "What a fe ...

    Saw Flashdance at the Derngate in Northampton with a couple of friends and children. Children aged 10 ,13 .14. 15 and 17 none of us were impresssed. I thought the lead was an understudy and her dancing was mediocre this was particulary evident in Oh what a feeling. The songs were otherwise instantly forgettable so much so that during the interval we commented that we couldn't remember a single tune.Gloria had the only impressive voice .The lead clearly worked hard but mostly we couldn't undersa ...

    Some of the dancers were brilliant and the singing was very good. The story's terrible, dull and boring. The whole production was sadly a big disappointment. Perhaps it should be renamed 'Flashsong'.

    The 2 rating is for the other dancers.......they should feature more and if they were in the audition.....Alex would have been shown the door

    I really wish I had not wasted my money on a ticket to see this. It was such a big let down. There was not enough really fantastic dancing, it was all rather dreary.

    This is a fabulous fresh energetic show - very glitzy but also very relevant to today's credit cruching times! But it also gives us all hope that better times are around the corner! It's a show with positive energy and brilliantly performed all every member of the cast and orchestra - well done all. I must mention Victoria who played Alex - this girl is pretty amazing - she holds us all in her grip - she takes charge of that stage bringing everything and everyone together. Her singing, dancing a ...

    Flashdance, Palace Theatre, Manchester. What an amazing performance by all! Alex shone with precision and elegance, a beautiful performance. A standing ovation on completion crowned the performance and rightfully so. Well done all!
