FLASHDANCE - THE MUSICAL TAKES Tour Comes to Van Wezel This Week
The pop culture phenomenon of Flashdance is now live on stage; appearing at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall tonight, April 1 at 8pm and April 2 at 2pm and 8pm.
With electrifying dance at its core, Flashdance -The Musical tells the inspiring and unforgettable story of Alex Owens, a Pittsburgh steel mill welder by day and a bar dancer by night with dreams of one day becoming a professional performer. When romance with her steel mill boss threatens to complicate her ambitions, Alex learns the meaning of love and its power to fuel the pursuit of her dream.
Flashdance -The Musical features a score that includes the biggest hit songs from the movie, including the Academy Award-winning title song "Flashdance - What a Feeling," "Maniac," "Gloria," "Manhunt," and "I Love Rock & Roll." In addition to these hits, 16 brand new songs have been written for the musical with music by Robbie Roth and lyrics by Robert Cary and Roth.
Flashdance -The Musical features a book by Tom Hedley (co-writer of the original screenplay), and Robert Cary with direction and choreography by Sergio Trujillo (Jersey Boys, Memphis).
Tickets are $35-$80 and are available at VanWezel.org, the Box Office, or by calling 941-953-3368.
