Here’s what we think: Review by Headout

A show that keeps you thinking even days after you’ve seen it is always a good one and highlights just how talented the writers are. Michael R. Jackson has a hit here and I can’t wait for A Strange Loop to reshape the West End. I hope it encourages a wave of new, inventive, unapologetic and more honest musical theatre. A show like this makes everyone question what they really want from theatre. For me, it is undeniably a unique, untold story, with incredible musical and visual creativity and more diversity. It’s that simple!

4/5

"Michael R Jackson’s Pulitzer-winning play is a strikingly original, highly entertaining tour of identity politics and the struggles of selfhood."

5/5

"It’s messy and exhausting as much as it is spectacular. It’s too long, too repetitious, too much - and I’d watch it again in an instant."

4/5

“It’s a unique and unpredictable piece of theatre – thoughtful, beautiful, painful, sad, challenging, provocative and occasionally hilarious. We would recommend people see this while they can: it feels like an important piece of queer theatre, and one that considers a whole range of important issues that aren’t really represented elsewhere on the stage.”

Hadestown

Experience

Watching this live almost felt like an out of body experience. After it finished it took me at least 20 minutes to connect with my senses, i couldn't even feel the cold outside. It wasn't simply watching the story but living it with them. Dylan Wood's performance is something everyone needs to see live. Truly I cannot describe how honoured I feel that I got to experience this.

The Devil Wears Prada

Experience
Sophia Chrysaphiades
Absolutely amazing experience ! - would highly recommend to anyone. The musical was genuinely the best musical I have seen for a while, full body chills! The singing, dancing and of course Vanessa Williams was outstanding, and of course the atmosphere was electric. Loved it already want to go back!

The Play That Goes Wrong

Experience
Thomas Hiemstra
The staff was courteous and helpful! The doormen, box office, coat check, bar men and ushers all helped provide a smooth and seamless experience to get us to our stalls, where the cast took over with their high energy performance! A fab experience.

Hamilton

Experience
Stacy Bell
Hamilton last night at the Palace Victoria Theatre was a once in a lifetime experience! Myself and two teenaged children from Australia, have had our tickets booked for months and have been very excited! Booking was very easy and we received a reminder yesterday with ticket links working perfectly and all running smoothly! The theatre is very cozy with its dim lighting and gorgeous architecture. King George! An absolute highlight for us! All performers were amazing! We were in awe of the whole production and were singing along to all our faves! Thank you for such a wonderful experience. We are already telling all our friends and family in the UK and back home! If we had more time in London we would definitely see the show again!
