Its not often that I’ll see a show twice but when Mirela asked me if I wanted to go see Into The Hoods again I didn’t really hesitate in saying yes. It has been just over a month since we last saw it but I didn’t really mind seeing it again as I enjoyed it so much last time. Mirela wasn’t sure what her Mum and Aunt would think about it but new her sister would get right into it. She really shouldn’t have worried – all three were very impressed.

To my pleasure the show left an impression on me as good as the first time I saw it. We had several cast changes (they obviously swap the kids around probably every evening) and one of the main cast must have been ill as she was replaced by another, plus we had several different dancers from the last troupe but this didn’t take away from the show at all. I know shows must have understudies etc. all the time but with this style of dancing its sometimes difficult to get timing absolutely spot on so I was impressed absolutely with their delivery tonight. All I can say is that it must take a whole lot of practise to get it all right!
