Blaze: The Street Dance Sensation reviews

Entertainment Focus 3/5
The choreography is generally well-executed but doesn’t have an easy flow. Perhaps the use of different choreographers gives the show a disjointed feel but the energy really only takes over in the final freestyle section where the dancers get a chance to show what they’re made of. Read full review

Afridiziak 3/5
Four years however is a long time in the world of hip hop dance theatre – alot has changed, but Blaze hasn’t. Blaze is still very much in 2010. Read  full review

Guise Magazine
‘Blaze’ definitely adheres to a younger demographic, bred on the phenomenon of modern dance films like Step Up and the variety of reality shows such as Britain’s Got Talent. You cannot help though to be drawn in to the exhilarating choreography and thumping beat of the music. Read full review

The Stage
The fact that Blaze is touring the international circuit and selling out in London speaks volumes about the enjoyability of this show and the young audience has a ball – the atmosphere is positively nightclubby. Read full review

Telegraph 4/5
The routines are slick, the pop collage is jolly and well-mixed (loud but not deafening), but the show would be a dull thing indeed without its superlative design team. Read full review
