Here’s what we think: Review by Headout

Since its 2006 debut at Apollo Victoria, Wicked has sustained its popularity, drawing an international audience to the massive theatre. In a world still enamoured with supernatural creatures, this Oz prequel has found its niche with witches, offering a stylish and bombastic musical experience that continues captivating theatregoers.

4/5

"The film world continues its love affair with werewolves, vampires and all things 'Twilight'. But theatre types have always known witches are where it's at. After its 2006 opening at Apollo Victoria, Oz prequel 'Wicked' continues to fill this massive theatre with an international crowd of voracious consumers (glass of champagne and a choccy for £16 anyone?).

“With fabulously OTT steampunk design, lavish lighting and the West End's biggest orchestra, the show is full of old-school bombast”

Mamma Mia!

Experience
Nina Poljansek
Mamma Mia! in London was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The atmosphere in the theatre was electric, the cast was incredibly talented, and the energy never dropped for a second. The live music, powerful vocals, and joyful choreography made the whole experience unforgettable. I especially loved how the audience was completely involved, singing along and smiling throughout the show. It was pure happiness, fun, and emotion all in one evening. Highly recommended to everyone visiting London! I visited Mama Mia in Slovenia for 4 times, it was great, but here even better, wauuuu, top🥰

Come Alive

Experience
Carlos Peláez Azor
Come Alive: The Greatest Showman in London is a truly spectacular show. Visually stunning from start to finish, it features an incredible succession of acrobatics, flips, and juggling acts that constantly leave you in awe. The musical level is outstanding and deeply immersive. The music is not just something you hear, but something you feel, creating an energetic and fun atmosphere that completely pulls you in. The performers are exceptionally talented, and the combination of movement, sound, and visuals makes the experience unforgettable. This is more than a show—it’s a full sensory experience. Highly recommended and absolutely worth seeing.
