A 1983 film about a steelworker who successfully pursues her dream of becoming a professional dancer, Flashdance was a box office smash. And a few years ago, it became a Broadway hit too. A touring version of the Broadway musical comes to the Palace at 7:30 tonight for a run that continues through April 13. The film delivered hits such as “Flashdance – What a Feeling,” “Maniac,” “Gloria,” “Manhunt” and “I Love Rock & Roll.” The play includes all these tunes and an additional 16 brand new songs written for the stage. Tickets range from $10 to $75. (Niesel)
