1Here’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!

Arifa Akbar,
The Guardian4/5
"Michael R Jackson’s Pulitzer-winning play is a strikingly original, highly entertaining tour of identity politics and the struggles of selfhood."
Tim Bano,
Evening Standard5/5
"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."
Chris Selman,
Gay Times4/5
“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.”

Hamilton
Kimberley Arnett
The performance took you on a journey through the late 1700s America, capturing the life of Alexander Hamilton until his death in 1804. The stage set... the ambience... every scene made you feel like you were right there in every room with him. Overall the musical was captivating and very entertaining from start to finish. Cudos to the cast for a job well done!

Disney's Hercules

Staff were incredibly friendly, visible and helpful for navigating the theater. The production faced a technically issue about two minutes into the show, leading to a delay of approx. 40 minutes. While this was unfortunate, crew kept us in the loop and once the show resumed it ran smoothly. It was a phenomenal show with incredibly talented actors.

Mamma Mia!
Tiffany J Mockford
My daughters and I were so excited to see Mamma Mia on our first trip to London! We met our aunt, and a dear family friend, before the show for a Mamma Mia high tea and then we watched the musical. The theatre is gorgeous, and the cast had such energy. We loved it.

Amazing! We came all the way from France just for this, and we really don't regret it. The staging is incredible. It goes without saying—you English are the best when it comes to theater.

The concert was just amazing—the special effects alone were sensational. I’d go see it again in a heartbeat. It’s just great how ABBA pulled it off, and the organizers too.
