What a show, had me switching from laughing to crying throughout the show, how can a show about something so terrible be amazing.
You wish everywhere was like Gander

Operation Mincemeat
Now Playingwhat an incredible show, I knew the story and had the book, podcast and film but to see it brought alive so wonderfully in Musical form.. almost perfection!
The overuse of pixel lights in the 2nd half, great for one song but then were not needed.

Sister Act: The Musical

Sister Act: The Musical
Now PlayingGreat songs, great set, fantastic cast and amazing scooby-do-esq capers!
Some Celeb cast maybe not the strongest singers but made up for it with facial expression

This was so funny, I thought my grandad was going to have a 2nd heart attack.

Les Misรฉrables

A wonderful adaptation of the film to the stage
Those talented kids make me feel that I've wasted a LOT of my life!
20

A wonderful story translated beautifully into a musical
Starts off very slow, seems to squash a lot in, technical issues ruined the immersion

Back to the Future: The Musical
Now PlayingAmazing visual effects, some great use of the stage and a show that HAS to be seen in London
On first listen some of the songs aren't memorable but they grow on you

The songs, the story and the set, it was lovely
Slight accent drift from some performers

Now PlayingSo good, I've taken family members to see it again and again!

Disney's Frozen
Now Playing
Disney's Frozen
Now PlayingThe sets, the production, the performances everything
some things felt a bit rushed due to compressing the movie (and adding original songs) but that's to be expected
38

A different take, great story and some fantastic surprises
A few of the latter songs were a bit Whiney and repetitive
39
The Phantom of the Opera
Now Playing41
Shrek The Musical
Now Playing42

Completely not what I expected, not a football fan at all but was taken my the story and performance
43
Harry Potter And The Cursed Child
Now Playing
Harry Potter And The Cursed Child
Now PlayingI'm not the biggest Harry Potter fan but still enjoyed this, Had some very impressive magic tricks,
The storyline was a bit... weird
44
Mamma Mia!

Mamma Mia!
Now PlayingUnique storyline, great casting
awkward song transitions, some weird scenes

As someone who hates anything to do with period dramas, I went in expecting to dislike this, but it had me laughing so hard.
47

A lovely telling of the story
Tech references which don't make sense!
48
49

A magical wonder down memory lane including a few suprised comments of "oh I didn't know they did that"
52
53

Mischief are back with another great show!
Focuses a little too much on the magic rather than comedy
55

I've seen this 3 times and everytime has been fantastic
You cannot see the same one again!!!
56

The staging, the story, everything really
That we only caught it on the last day of the tour!
57

Very different to what I usually watch, but humorous
Some dance numbers went on a bit.
58
60

The lead, some of the songs, and the set design.
a bit of an uneasy watch, feels a bit soon
62

A love letter to fans, full of fun references and a unique way of telling the story
Some songs were difficult to understand with audio levels.
64
Everybody's Talking About Jamie
Now Playing
Everybody's Talking About Jamie
Now PlayingNice to hear northern pronunciations on the west end!
Songs are very repetitive, Jamie doesn't show enough growth / vunerability as a character to get attached to him within the show

The costumes and lighting
it was enjoyable but I didn't fall in love with the music
67
68

Some lovely moments and unexpected laughs, went in blind so didn't know the concept

Great casting, amazing use of the space and great audience interaction
Itโs very very old school musical, like youโve been slapped in the face with Jazz Hands.

Matilda the Musical

Wendi Peters was fantastic in the role of 'mom' and had a fantastic voice
The show didn't stand out and the use of LED screens rather than full sets was a nice touch at the start but distracting throughout the show
81

Good stage design
I wanted to leave this show at the interval.
