Here’s what we think: Review by Headout

It’s scrappy street urchins versus media magnates in Disney’s blockbuster musical Newsies. It isn’t exactly hot off the presses (the Broadway production premiered over ten years ago) but it’s so fun it warranted a Newsies review. After all, it still manages to dazzle with a charming ensemble cast, toe-tapping tunes, and dance numbers that will make you want to jeté (jump) up and down Olympic Way.

"Disney’s cult classic musical about striking finally hits the UK – and it’s a delight."

4/5

“While this underdog tale doesn’t have the most sophisticated of narratives, I can absolutely see its themes resonating with audiences, particularly its inspiring message that the next generation of social justice warriors can change the world. We could do with that hope right now - and with a huge, spectacular show which proves, once and for all, that musical theatre is good for the soul.”

Chris Wiegand,

3/5

“This show about young New York paper-sellers has stirring anthems and screwball energy, even if it lacks emotional and political depth.”

The Mousetrap

Experience

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.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Experience
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

Experience
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!!
