Based on the classic 1983 film starring Jennifer Beals, Flashdance tells the story of 18 year old Alex, a welder by day and an exotic "flashdancer" by night, whose dream is to obtain a place at the prestigious Shipley Dance Academy. Choreography is by Arlene Phillips (Strictly Come Dancing, Grease, Saturday Night Fever). Final performance at the Shaftesbury Theatre is Jan. 15.
