Nice Swan Theatre Company - a North East platform for performing arts - are bringing the legendary Broadway musical A Chorus Line to Newcastle for a strictly limited run in May.
Since Katya Virshilas and Pasha Kovalev teamed up as a professional dance couple on the hit BBC television show Strictly Come Dancing in 2011, they have wowed audiences with their beautiful Ballroom routines and sexy Latin dances. After two years of sell-out shows in Swindon, the duo have returned to the Wyvern Theatre for three nights from Monday 14 - Wednesday 16 April.
The special one-night-only concert You'll Never Walk Alone took place on Sunday 2 March at the Queen's Theatre in aid of the Philippines Typhoon Appeal, with all proceeds going directly to the Disasters Emergency Committee. Scroll down for photos from the show!
Nice Swan Theatre Company - a North East based productions company which also runs a successful performance Academy are staging a large scale Gala night for one night only in aid of charity.

The Wyvern Theatre, Swindon, has launched its programme for the Spring-Summer season.
Tony Award winning musical theatre will be represented in puppet-form by Avenue Q, while Oscar-nominated director Stephen Daldry will present an imaginative staging of J B Priestly's An Inspector Calls. After a six year absence from the stand-up circuit, Jack Dee will make his way to the Wyvern to road-test new material for his 2012 tour, and Ken Dodd will bring his Happiness show to Swindon in August.
Waves of good and bad news washed over tonight's 'So You Think You Can Dance' as host Cat Deeley and the show basked in the glow of the eight Emmy nominations that were announced earlier today. However, there were several gray clouds hovering about as two more dancers were sent home and, for the first time this season, the eliminated dancers were not part of the same pair. Another bit of sad news came when Judge/Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe announced early in the show that Season 7 fan favorite Alex Wong, who had to step out of competition last year due to a tendon injury on his right foot, suffered another tendon injury (this time on his left foot) this past weekend and would not be able to return to the show as an All-Star next week.
Let me just say this right off the bat... BURN THE FLOOR is quite possibly the most entertained I have ever been at a dance-centric stage show. From its electric start to its rousingly gangbusters finalé, the show truly lives up to its scorching name. Direct from its Broadway berth, the tour is now calling the Segerstrom Center for the Arts in Costa Mesa its temporary dance home for the next two weeks through June 12.

Although an avid fan of dancing, I have never considered myself an expert. Hardly. But...I know when I am moved, moved to the brink...and Jason Gilkison's dance spectacular Burn the Floor, now on tour and at the Pantages until Sunday May 8 only, has enough vitality and style to keep audiences jumping for joy. Yes, there are many similar dance shows, but this one's definitive!
