Sparks will fly this autumn as the world premiere production of Flashdance -- The Musical explodes onto the stage in Wimbledon.

Set in Pittsburgh, USA, FLASHDANCE tells the story of 18 year old Alex, a welder by day and 'flashdancer' by night, whose dream is to obtain a place at the prestigious Shipley Dance Academy.

Based on the Paramount Pictures film (Screenplay by Tom Hedley and Joe Eszterhas, story by Tom Hedley) Flashdance is an unmistakably unique musical about holding onto your dreams and love against all the odds. The show features an iconic score including the smash hit "Maniac", along with "Manhunt", "Gloria", "I Love Rock & Roll" and the Academy Award winning title track "Flashdance - What a Feeling".
