Starlight Express
7 Answers
Went to see Starlight Express in Dublin last night. I enjoyed it but loads of people around us didn't come back for second half, so they obviously thought it was rubbish. What do ABers think?

The current tour is a new production called Starlight Express: The Third Dimension, with the 3D specs etc. I think they had to do this to keep up with the times, as just traiditional rollerskating may seem a little passe these days. I saw it last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. All together now, 'There's a Light at the End of the Tunnel...'
We're getting this production at Christmas. Apparently it's nigh on impossible to tour the 'railway track' as most provincial theatres just can't accomodate it - in fact, many aren't purpose-built theatres at all. Ours is a concert hall, really, although we've had some 'big' productions there in recent years. From what I'm told, the actual roller skating is confined to a small area of the stage.
