For the few people that have asked me for a review of this musical, here is a short one! The plot is boy and girl get engaged, boy meets wicked music promoter, girl leaves boy, will they get back together? MEETS the full monty LOL! Before you get excited they are not male strippers but a Take That tribute band . Lots of fab dancing and singing along with very funny jokes. Good male characters, weak female characters IMO. Lots of near naked men and lots of women in Kylie style gold hotpants. Something for the ladies and their dragged along disgruntled husbands. Music is all Take That songs which can actually be quite funny at a serious moment when they start singing those well-known lyrics, especially in Want You Back For Good as the first bars play it starts to rain!! Basically you can probably guess that this is the musical equivalent of a 'chick-flick', but I would definitely recommend it for a feel good, singalong night out if you take the story very 'tongue in cheek'. The cast worked very hard and the vocals were very good. Very enjoyable and I would go again. Great opportunity for a mega-mix at the end as you will imagine.

Ok, you've made me want to see it...not sure if it was the "near-naked men" that swung it or the idea of a fun night out, but I'm booking up!
