BWW Review: 'FLASHDANCE' THE MUSICAL at Palace Theatre
by Cady Hickman - November 14, 2019
The Palace Theater in Manchester is home to many well-known theater productions that entertain the diverse community in the city. One such show is 'Flashdance', which is running at the Palace until November 17th. From tasteful 80's fashion popping up through different costumes to classic songs from the decade, this production brings the best of the 80's (while still appealing to those of us who are perhaps less of a fan). Alongside the great music, this production also featured projection work, live video, and unique lighting to bring a tasteful diversity to a minimalistic set design.
