Flavia said; "We have had such a fantastic time creating and dancing in Midnight Tango and Dance ’Til Dawn. It’s an incredible experience to perform live in front of our wonderful audience night after night, but all good things must come to an end, so we’re creating our final ever theatre show. It’s going to be intimate, intense and full of our award-winning Argentine tango. The Last Tango is going to showcase our best work and most beautiful dance moves before we finally say farewell to theatre."

200th Interview: Flavia Cacace & Vincent Simone

Following the success of Midnight Tango, Flavia Cacace and Vincent Simone are preparing to open their new show Dance ’Til Dawn which transfers to the West End’s Aldwych Theatre following a successful UK Tour. 

Best known for starring in Strictly Come Dancing (BBC), Vincent and Flavia have been dancing together for twenty years. The former World Champions stole the hearts of the British public with their breathtaking Argentine Tango on the popular television programme. 

Together they launched Midnight Tango in 2010 which went on to be seen by over half a million people during its tours and two West End runs (Aldwych and Phoenix). Dance ‘Til Dawn is directed by Olivier Award winning choreographer and director Karen Bruce who also directed Midnight Tango.

I recently spoke to Vincent and Flavia about why Dance ‘Til Dawn will surprise people, how they developed the show from page to stage and why they’re so excited to be back in the West End…

I believe Dance 'Til Dawn is very different to Midnight Tango. What were your initial visions for the show?

Flavia Cacace: We wanted it to be very different and didn’t really want it to be compared to Midnight Tango because that was so special in itself. We wanted to create something completely different and wanted to dance Ballroom and Latin as well as Argentine Tango which in Midnight Tango we didn’t really do. So together with our director Karen (Bruce) and producer Adam (Spiegel) we came up with the idea of branching out a little bit and heading a little more towards musical theatreland.
