Burn The Floor is a breathtaking blend of Latin and Ballroom dance first conceived as a special performance at Sir Elton John's 50th birthday celebration in 1997. Two years later the show made it's world premiere in the UK and quickly took the globe by storm
Years before Strictly Come Dancing and So You Think You Can Dance turned ballroom dancing into must-see TV, one sizzling show was setting stages ablaze around the globe. BURN THE FLOOR, the electrifying Latin and Ballroom dance spectacular that has thrilled audiences in more than 30 countries, brings the fire and passion of their live performance to the Shaftesbury Theatre in London's West End.
The new Broadway production of BURN THE FLOOR, with special guest stars Strictly's golden couple, Brian Fortuna and Ali Bastian, best known for playing feisty PC Sally Armstrong in The Bill and Becca Dean in the C4 soap Hollyoaks, comes to London following a successful run in New York where it broke box office records.
From Harlem's hot nights at The Savoy, where dances such as the Lindy, Foxtrot and Charleston were born to the Latin Quarter where the Cha-Cha, Rumba and Salsa steamed up the stage, Burn The Floor takes audiences on a journey through the passionate drama of dance. The elegance of the Viennese Waltz, the exuberance of the Jive, the intensity of the Paso Doble - audiences will experience them all, as well as the Tango, Samba, Mambo, Quickstep and Swing!

Showing at Shaftesbury Theatre

Shaftesbury Theatre
210 Shaftesbury Avenue
London

Originally called the New Prince's Theatre, it changed it's name to the Prince's Theatre in 1914. The theatre was sold to E.M.I. in 1962 and, after a refit and redecoration, was opened in 1963 as the Shaftesbury Theatre. On 20 July 1973 parts of the ceiling fell in, closing the production of the musical "Hair", and bringing the threat of 'redevelopment' (ie more office space) which was averted after a public campaign and the listing of the building by the Government in March 1974. The reopening was shown over a revival of the musical "West Side Story". 1980 saw Marvin Hamlisch's musical "They're Playing Our Song" enjoyed a successful run. More recent productions here include Stephen Sondheim's "Follies", Kander and Ebb's "Kiss of the Spider Woman", the Royal National Theatre's production of Rodgers and Hammerstein's "Carousel" and The Who's "Tommy".
