点评:We went to see SpeakEasy featuring Gorka & Karen, two of the pro dancers from Strictly.
The parking aspect that I could see some reviews have mentioned as troublesome, we found quite easy and straightforward. The sign posting was fine and we had no problems. We were slightly confused about what way to walk when we left the car (left or right) so we just followed others and then we very quickly saw signs to the Art Centre.
The staff inside were great and a shout-out to the people manning the doors, really friendly and welcoming.
The venue itself had seats that were reasonably small compared to some venues and certainly not the most comfortable; prepare for a numb bum !
The show was good but not amazing , though the music was excellent. We couldn’t help but compare to Giovanni’s show a couple of months before which felt more polished somehow and the backing dancers just a little more precise. However, this was still an entertaining show and we did enjoy it.
Lastly, what we didn’t enjoy was the drinks pricing; £29 for two half pints of ale and two small bottles of Prosecco!!?? I know that pricing in theatres is always silly but this was impressively greedy. At least Dick Turpin wore a mask!
翻译:我们去看了 SpeakEasy,里面有 Gorka 和 Karen,两位来自 Strictly 的专业舞者。
我看到一些评论提到停车很麻烦,但我们发现停车问题很简单。路标很好,我们没有遇到任何问题。我们下车时有点搞不清楚该往哪边走(左转还是右转),所以我们就跟着别人走,然后我们很快就看到了艺术中心的路标。
里面的工作人员很棒,门口的工作人员非常友好热情。
与其他一些场地相比,场地本身的座位相当小,当然也不是最舒适的;准备好屁股发麻吧!
演出不错,但并不惊艳,不过音乐很棒。我们忍不住将其与几个月前 Giovanni 的演出进行比较,那场演出不知何故感觉更精致,伴舞也更精确一些。然而,这仍然是一场有趣的演出,我们确实很喜欢。
最后,我们不喜欢的是饮料的价格;两杯半品脱啤酒和两小瓶普罗塞克起泡酒要 29 英镑!??我知道剧院里的定价总是很愚蠢,但这太贪婪了。至少迪克·特平戴了面具!
