The aldwych theatre is quite close to holborn tube station so it is easy to get there. The theatre is quite nice, but make sure you pay alittle extra to get a good view of the stage other wise you will miss out. The show is a real winner, we all loved the film with patrick swayze and the stage show is just wonderful. The cast pulled out all the stops and we had a really great time singing along to the music. The dancing was superb and we thought the leading roles were acted and performed well. It does get hot in the theatre, so do not dress in hot or thick clothing as you will melt. Would love to see the show again some time.

Being the real romatic I booked tickets for Dirty Dancing as this was the 'girly' film on the go when I first met my future wife 20 years ago on the very weekend we took in the show! The only down side at the time of booking was the available tickets which were located on the last row at the very back of the theatre. However when we got there we were pleasantly surprised because the view was amazing. Yes we couldn't make out the actors faces/expressions and didn' realise that there was an actual band at the top of the stage however nothing else was missed. The show was fantastic (even for a guy!) and true to the film. The most impressive scene was the log dance and the water jump where the effects were realistic. Guys if you want brownie points get your tickets booked!
