2Here’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.”

The Mousetrap

Very persuasive and enthusiastic performances.
No songs.
A wonderful theatre -- 100+ years old, quaint, charming and packed with a buzzing audience who helped create a wonderful atmosphere.

Moulin Rouge! The Musical

It was a small theater, cozy atmosphere. Super show with good cast and especially the singing of the lead actors was very good!

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Nicole Nieweg
For true Harry Potter fans, the play is a highlight. I have seen this play in Hamburg and London, I have to admit that Hamburg manages to make this event big. London can take a leaf out of its book. Nevertheless, it was good.

Phantom of the Opera
Belinda Lavon Gonzalez
The show as fantastic and the theatre was Magnificent! I live in Tampa, Florida and we don't have historical theaters so we were in awe ant the beauty of His Majesty. I've been to several in New York and this venue surpassed those.
The staff was friendly, helpful and moved us in quickly. Toilettes were clean.
The theater sound was incredible!!
