comment and review i came on saturday for the second time, coming to see dream girls .i came for the day from derbys.i really enjoyed the show .but it was spolit when at the end of the show i was one of the last ones out.i was told to go out of a side door.this led me to the back of the hotel i think .i didnt know where to go a friendly girl from the hotel told me where to go.it was an auful way to come out not safe for a senior citizen to go there was no one else there ,half way two men where coming down from the top road.i could have been robbed or attacked no one was there to know.you need to tell staff to think about who you are directing out of that door.its dark that way i was just glad i got out alright that way i was on my own.i would like to know you have got this message.
