Flashdance Tickets

We were very disappointed with this. The acoustics were horrible and because the majority of the music was written for this, there was no way to even discern what the lyrics were. The dancing was mediocre at best. We thought that because it was titled "Flashdance The Musical" that it would be a musical version of the movie including the iconic music. Not so. Luckily we bought discounted tickets. If I had paid full price to see this, I would have been even more disappointed.

Outside orchestras actress, the quality of acting, singing & dancing was subpar. The stage setup & background looked amateurish. It wasn't worth the price.

We a party of 4 were very disappointed in the performance. The actors seemed tired and lacked any interest in entertaining the audience. The dancing was very mechanical and the singing was barely adequite. We all agreed we have seen high school performances that were better than this professional touring troupe. I wish we could get our money back.

my daughter and I enjoyed the flash back to the original Flashdance--had a great time--we could tell the performers enoyed what they were doing and that made it so much more fun for us!!

The play was ok. At times I had a hard time understanding the lyrics to songs due to the sound. We paid $80+ for our seats. Definately not worth it. If you can get tickets for like $40 I would recommend going. The seats were good.

The singing talent of the cast was great! However, what turned me off was the sexuality of the play. I should have known it would be that way, but had hopes of it being better. It didn't seem to me to have "light" reflected from it, but rather darkness. Sorry. We left at intermission.

Loved it ! ! Would go again if I have the chance! !

Not impressed:-( There was singing talent, but just didn't like it!!!

Was an excellent show. The only negative comment I have is that the sound system could have been louder,

This was Flashdance. I expected amazing dance and choriography. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. The dancing was mediocre and the choriography was actually laughable. The singing might have been bearable if it weren't for the cheesy song writing. I've seen better acting from high school theater. I wish there was something positive I could say about this show but there truly isn't. I'm actually maddened over the amount of money I spent to see this show and how terrible it was. I kept apologizing to my date and he apologized to me for spending money for tickets. Intermission couldn't come fast enough and we weren't the only ones to duck out early.

Loved it. Had a great time with hubby. Lots of humor added and dancing was great.

This is a very interesting musical adaption of Flashdance the movie. While this is a musical, there's no orchestra playing the music live, it's all sound files, but the singing is sung live. One problem that musicals tend to have is the audio of the actors, but in this one, the microphones were very loud and clear. The stage setup of this show is unique in that it consists of one set for the whole show and only the things in the foreground change but not the background. Being that the show takes place in the 1980's, the choreography consists of many dance moves popular during the decade, so depending on your taste, you'll either like it or find it cheesy. The costumes were decent but could have looked a little bit more like what they looked like during the 80's, but due to quick costume changes, it works for practicality. Since Flashdance was originally a movie that came out in 1983, the musical adaption does a very good job of replicating the scenes in the film. It's strange that the musical and the movie are roughly the same amount of time. Overall, it's an interesting musical with a simple storyline that's not too complicated and enjoyable if you'd like to watch something that's contemporary and different. Whenever a story is adapted from one media type to another (e.g. movie to musical) it's generally a good idea to see the original in order to understand the new version or see the changes they've made. It's not required, but it's recommended. This show is for all audiences but probably not for young children, treat is as PG13.

My husband, daughter, and I were really looking forward to seeing this play. My husband and I have memories of when the movie was first released, so we were excited to share the experience with our 24 year old daughter. We bought the highest priced seats, because we wanted it to be a special memory with our daughter. We wanted to ensure we had a good view of the stage. The actors and actresses did a great job, and we actually felt bad for them. The sound was absolutely horrible throughout the entire play. When the show first began we were understanding that maybe there was a last minute issue that had to be tweaked. However, the problem persisted throughout the entire show. There were many times we couldn't hear what the actors and actresses were saying because their microphones didn't work properly. Then there were times when there was a very loud sound from the microphones overpowering what the actors and actresses were saying. We heard many people grumbling about the sound throughout the show and as we were leaving. I personally believe we should have been offered some kind of refund or credit towards another show. I did not call and complain, but it was so obvious there was a problem throughout the show and so therefore I think it should have been offered. I have been to several shows at Shea's Performing Arts Center and have never experienced anything like this. Again, the actors and actresses did a great job! For this reason I would recommend others to go and see the show. I'm sure they worked very hard to prepare for the show, and it's a shame they most likely felt embarrassed. And in reality, considering how bad the sound was, they still continued to give it their all.

I was hoping not to make too many comparisons with the movie, but this theatrical musical did not disappoint. It as great to see it live. Alex was fantastic!

This show had so much potential to be great, but it was just a major disaster. Costumes were awful. Too much singing. Not enough dancing. The choreography was really bad, making my friend laugh out loud every time one of the "exotic dancers" would dance. They were not close to sexy and instead looked like they were doing squats. There was nothing good about this show. We left at intermission.

I thought Julia did a great job but there was room for improvement in the rest of the cast. I thought the dicing was good but the story line was a little weak.

Don't waste your money on this production. Though some numbers were well done, especially the finale, most were second rate, with mediocre dancing and singing. The dialogue was horrible. The lead female was a good singer and excellent dancer. In fact she looked like Jennifer Beales the original lead from the movie. One of the support dancers, who played Kiki was also excellent. The rest were fair to poor. It's easy to see why this show never made it to Broadway.

A very lively and active show. Plenty of dancing and singing that kept your attention. Dancing numbers were very good and quality of content excellent. The female lead was excellent in both singing and dancing.

I was excited to see Flashdance and very disappointed in the show. I felt that the play reflected an okay high school musical. The lead male singing wasn't very good at all. The lead actress (Alex) was just okay. This was the first play at The Shubert that I felt so disappointed. I would highly recommend NOT seeing this play. The price tag makes it even more disappointing.

Flashdance The Musical AMAZING!!! ***** My husband and I saw the Flashdance The Musical Friday December 8, 2015 and truly loved every second of it!!! Julia Rose, who played the lead role as Alex was AMAZING!!! She is an incredible talent and was the star of the show!!! We will keep our eyes out for her in the future.
