A pipe burst backstage half way through the first preview of Baz Luhrman's Strictly Ballroom at the Piccadilly Theatre last night, forcing the performance to end early.
After a forced interval the theatre manager announced: A pipe has burst onto the stage and flooded the electrics causing tonight's performance to be cancelled. With the show then issuing a statement: Unfortunately at the first preview of Strictly Ballroom tonight, there was a burst water main pipe backstage at the Piccadilly Theatre, which meant it was unsafe for the show to continue.
Will Young posted a video of director and choreographer Drew McOnie running around backstage with buckets assisting with the clean up .
