LEG warmers at the ready - Fame The Musical is returning to the Mayflower next week.

And there are a few familiar faces among its twinkle-toed cast.

Abigail Finley, semi-finalist from BBC TV's How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria, along with Strictly Dance Fever winners Hollie Robertson and Darrien Wright will be showing off their fancy footwork in this lycra-clad dance fest.

Set in a New York performing arts school, Fame The Musical follows the pupils through the highs and lows, the romances and the sheer hard work as they search for the success that will make them live forever'.

Nominated for two Olivier Awards the show's high impact finale has prompted standing ovations across the globe. Expect dynamic dance routines and explosive high-octane performances from the 30-strong young British cast.

But it's not all about dance floor glitz and glamour - as you might expect from a musical about street-wise kids in the Big Apple there is also plenty of grit, tragedy and drama.

Fame The Musical is at the Mayflower from Tuesday until February 3. Tickets are available from The Mayflower Box Office 023 80 711811, online at www.the-mayflower.com or at Ticketsouth, WestQuay Information Desk, Southampton.
