A dancer's dream

4.0 out of 5.0

December 03, 2007

An ideal venue for an intimate gig that bustles with authentic character complemented with an impressive sound system that will vibrate into your bones. It’s small enough to create an up close and personal relation with the main performer but with a large enough space to shake up the dance floor. As it is ‘in the round’ with three floors you are guaranteed a good eye view of your favourite star without the fear of being crushed like an ant. The only yet fairly significant complaint would be that for such a popular venue there is only one bar which always has a predictably enormous queue. Also the wait to put and receive back your items from the cloakroom is nearly as long as the show itself! If you are prepared and stocked up on your intake of drinks and don’t bring any excess possessions to put away you will certainly enjoy a night that is jam packed with intoxicating tunes and a ripping dance floor.
