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.”

What a fantastic show; the performers were excellent. This was my first time seeing this show as I wanted to get the memory of the films out of my head, and I am glad I eventually saw it. The stage sets and costumes were great; the singing was out of this world. It is well worth a visit and the tickets were reasonably priced.

The cast was truly amazing. I laughed, i cried and went throughn every emotion possible. But mostly I was just amazed what these people do there on stage. Not only were they amazing singers, but also so impressive when it comes to acring, comedy or performing. Our seats were great as well, i was a bit worried since they were last row but honestly it couldn't have been a better experience.

The Comedy About Spies
Mark Sell
A sold-out house, comedy with lots of slapstick and plenty of action on stage, with the typical English mystery twist at the end. For German visitors: don't be surprised by the queue outside 10 minutes before the show starts; the play starts on time. And wine and beer at your seat? No problem!

Much Ado About Nothing
Amy Farmer
We enjoyed the 'Much ado about nothing' play yesterday. The cast were all very well rehearsed and suited for their respective roles. I have already recommended this to others in last day.

Phantom of the Opera
Beatriz Jing García Segura
The Phantom of the Opera is a perfect show to rest and relax for 2h30+ minutes in the center of London. If it rains or you are tired of walking, it serves as an unbeatable break and musical entertainment. The music, the songs, the costumes, and the production—everything was fantastic. A beautiful theater and clean restrooms. You have the option to get a drink or something before or during the show, and there is merchandise to remember the performance by, such as magnets, bags, and even a red rose with the song lyrics on a red ribbon. Beautiful.

Phantom of the Opera
Alexis Anderson
Phantom of the Opera is so incredible. This is my 3rd or 4th time seeing it, and it never gets old. The actor who played the Phantom had such strong, beautiful vocals. The entire experience was lovely from the people at the entrance to those working at the bar to of course the musical itself. Our seats were also great for the price and we could see the entire stage very well, even with a peak of the orchestra. I would recommend anyone considering seeing Phantom to do it here in London!
