my girlie friends and I went to see Dirty Dancing at the Aldwych Theatre. The show was absolutly amaizing, we really enjoyed it!!!! It was the understudy that played Baby and she did an excellent job!!!! All the scenes from the film were included. Even the water and grass scene where Johnny and Baby practice the lift were very realistic... more

On a work trip to london, booked tikets for dirty dancing. We were so excited we had goosebumps. Got there and theTheatre was ICE COLD. Heating broken. Everyone had hats, scarf and gloves on. Half way through people started screaming, running and standing on seats there was MICE running about everywhere over everyones feet. It was HELL and to top... more

Oh my god. This is one of the best shows I have ever seen. It is EXACTLY like the film, word for word and scene for scene. I cannot believe the reviews, people must have been watching a different show to me. I went with 2 friends and we all thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. I can honestly... more

I wouldn't be surprised if I was at the same showing as lucytwo, because my two friends and I thought exactly the same thing. We were in the third row and could clearly see "Johnny's" bum pads, which set me off laughing straight away. The guy who played Johnny was dreadful - absolutely no charisma whatsoever. There really was no... more

My husband and I went to London for a few days break and I was so excited to go and see Dirty Dancing at the Theatre. How disappointed I was (we were!). I have since found out that Johnny and Penny were played by alternates and/or understudies - and you could tell. There was absolutely no passion between Johnny and... more

An avid theatre goer I bought tickets to take my 2 daughters to see this last night. It wasn't top of my list but my daughters love the film so it was more for them. It was slow, acting was not the best and the set was again pretty boring. In all my 30 years of going to London to... more

I went on my own to watch this show and i found it very enjoyable.Ok,its a bit different from the film but who wants it the same word for word!! The jokes are a bit lame but i thought the singing and dancing were good. The set design is very ermm inventive but it is a small stage and i... more

I took my sister to see Dirty Dancing as a Birthday treat and could not have been more disapointed. We had been looking forward to the show for weeks as we had not previously been able to get tickets. Not long into the performance we started to wonder what all the hype was really all about. The acting was extremely... more
