Top Hat
Aparently Tom Chambers and Summer Strallen are in rehearsal for Top Hat on stage (I remember it as an old Fred Astaire/Ginegr Rogers musical). However, don't know when or where this will be. Could be a great show for dancing though and some lovely songs

Re: Top Hat
Sounds like that could be fun! I loved Tom Chambers when he was on Strictly!

Re: Top Hat
We saw Summer in Love Never Dies just yesterday, she was great, her facial expressions were excellent.

Love the Tom Chambers tap dance clip WM!
Re: Top Hat
Glad you liked it
I think this show will be in the Lowry - is that in Manchester?

Re: Top Hat
Thanks for the link - the irony is that the tour is not coming anywhere near me
I would LOVE to see this show, but all venues are just too far away

Re: Top Hat
What about Birmingham? I love the Hippodrome, much prefer it to the Lowry

Re: Top Hat
It's still a 3-3 and half hour journey each way - not nice after evening performance, and hotel just adds to expense. Will have to see if there are any trips arranged from round here.

Re: Top Hat
Did anyone actually go and see Top Hat on stage? I am trying to organise a birthday party in the next couple of months...perhaps I should wait until the reviews come out?
I am particularly interested if anyone saw it along with Singin in the Rain, and could tell me which they thought would be better for a 10 year old's birthday? I have found a few pictures online and some information but the web doesn't have too many people who have seen it!

Re: Top Hat
I've seeen it twice, and throughly enjoyed it. Slightly biaised as friend's daughter is in it. Lots of dancing especially tap. There is a facebook page and the link below has more clips etc on it. Haven't seen singing in the rain so can't compare.
