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.”

Moulin Rouge! The Musical
Wayne E Watson
Sets were incredible. The voice were stupendous. The acting was off the chart wonderful. Pure acting and singing talent. We sat in royal balcony and the view was fantastic. We look forward to returning to London and seeing another production at the Piccadilly Theatre.
(One recommendation would be to include on the website some recommended parking garages for those of us coming from out of town in vehicles.) love love loved it!!!

The Play That Goes Wrong

The Play That Goes Wrong was absolutely brilliant. I haven't laughed so much in ages. The cast were fantastic and I loved the interaction they had with the audience. I particularly liked the mispronounced words and the visual humour.

Hamilton
Monika Sonta
An amazing show in a beautiful venue! Hamilton absolutely delivers – brilliant music, powerful choreography, and incredible energy from the cast throughout. The show is clearly physically demanding, especially for the dancers, who brought nonstop intensity and precision to every scene.
Victoria Theatre is the perfect setting – elegant, well-maintained, and full of atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, adding to the overall experience.
And a special shoutout to the King – absolutely hilarious and a true highlight of the night!
Definitely a must-see – unforgettable from start to finish!
