I've lost count of how many times I've seen this, party because it toured a lot but also because it opened a long time ago now (1997). This might turn out to be the second time I saw it in the West End. It might be the time me and a friend had front row seats, which is slightly unnerving when you're that close to so many hot dancers. It's the second time I've seen Alison Moyet acting which means I've seen her acting as many times as I've seen her performer as a pop singer. I'd see this again at the drop of a hat.
