MAME, a classic 1960's musical, with book by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee and music and lyrics by Jerry Herman, has not been seen in the UK since the original West End production in 1969 starring Ginger Rogers. Set in New York City and spanning the Great Depression and World War II, the musical focuses on eccentric bohemian Mame Dennis.

BWW Reviews: DIRTY DANCING, Bristol Hippodrome, March 19 2014
Dirty Dancing is billed as being 'the classic story on stage', and it doesn't disappoint in its promise, bringing the characters of the ever-popular 1980s film to life for audiences across the UK. Highbrow theatre this is not. However, if you're looking for a fun night out at a show which doesn't take itself too seriously yet still delivers some wonderful dancing, well-loved tunes and a full dose of hip swaying, then Dirty Dancing is the show for you.
