West End Musicals - Theatre News & Reviews

Selling 2 stalls tickets to the sold out performance of Legally Blonde musical Saturday 14th March 1430 matinee, Milton Keynes Theatre. Ticketswap link below - www.ticketswap.com/listing/lega...

We feel like we witnessed the beginning of something very special yesterday. If that was just the second run of workshops then Midnight is going to do very well when it transfers to Broadway/West End. www.instagram.com/reel/DVn8DNN...

The Unlikely Pilgrimage Of Harold Fry is simply beautiful. A musical that will have you in tears of laughter throughout and full on ugly crying by the end. Passenger has created a really special score here, executed by a very talented cast ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ www.instagram.com/reel/DUnFg1H...

American Psycho at the Almeida is unlike any other musical I have ever seen. It's so hard to put into words as it is such a unique production but here are a few that come to mind... Unconventional, immersive, atmospheric, nostalgic and unexpectedly hilarious ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cable Street is back and stronger than ever! This could just be one of the best new British musicals you will see this year. Make sure to catch it before the Off-Broadway transfer as I have a feeling it will do very well over there! ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Pretty sure this will be making its way to the West End for the 2026 festive season. A hilarious show with great music courtesy of no less than ALW and Tim Rice! ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Cornley have done it again, another play ruined and this time it's a Xmas classic, Bah Humbug! A Christmas Carol Goes Wrong is causing mischief in the West End for the festive season with the standard farsical comedy chaos that we all know and love from the team ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oh, Mary! Not quite as hilarious as the constant cackling of certain audience members would have you believe, however it certainly will keep you entertained. 80 minutes of pure nonsense where you can just sit back and switch off from the world ⭐⭐⭐

Forget everything you know about the movie and prepare to bare witness to some edge of your seat Paranormal Activity. Unexpected and expertly placed humour coupled with immersive special effects and perfect casting make this play one you will be leave feeling possessed by! ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Paddington The Musical - this little bear has made their way from darkest Peru to London just in time for Xmas to lead a musical like nothing you've seen before. This is unmissable but don't worry this bear isn't going anywhere ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Sound of Music - another classic perfectly executed by the team at Curve and Nikolai Foster. Molly Lynch portrays Maria with stunning vocals alongside a very talented cast. The perfect show to see this festive season. Grab a ticket whilst you can! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

No good deed scene is EPIC! Emotional from that point onwards. I seriously can't give Wicked For Good any stars, only... 😭😭😭😭😭

@miacarragher portrays Katniss Everdeen to perfection in @thehungergamesonstage and the rest of the cast are very talented indeed. Full review on Instagram ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stefanie Jones is practically perfect as Mary Poppins. The show certainly hasn't lost it's magic on the current UK Tour! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ www.instagram.com/p/DQ37-byjRh...

Top Hat is on tour after being revived at Chichester Theatre and makes for a stylish take on Irving Berlin's classic. You will be familiar with pretty much every song in the score which are expertly delivered by a crooning tap dancing Phillip Attmore ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

50 First Dates is probably the best musical based on an Adam Sandler movie we are likely to see. The perfect rom com that will have you smiling throughout and in tears by the end. This is one that will not be forgotten anytime soon!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It's not much of a story but Charli Eglinton has written a wonderful score! With echoes of Hamilton without copying as some have said, given time and a bigger stage I feel like this could be a hit in the making! Aimie Atkinson (Nannerl) and Jack Chambers (Mozart himself!) are the stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Brigadoon is a must see classic that has been brought into the 21st Century with a performance that feels intimate and immersive. Vocals, choreography and even the Scottish accents are nailed by this talented cast. Georgina Onuorah a stand out once again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The latest tour of The Addams Family musical is entertaining enough but some characters just don't quite feel as sinister and dead pan as they should be, Wednesday in particular could also do with more aggressive vocals to emphasise her character ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another leading lady makes her debut in the West End but we all knew she would nail it didn't we! Rachel Zegler is world class and absolutely commands the stage. Diego Andres Rodriguez brings a really sinister and maniacal twist to Che, they have a very big future ahead ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The latest musical to strike Drury Lane has been sent down from the gods and Hercules is here to stay! The Disney classic has been immortalised and is very a-muse-ing indeed ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An absolutely unmissable play that every music fan needs to see! Fingers crossed there is a concert in the future so we can hear the soundtrack in full! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a bargain! £24 tickets to The Great Gatsby Musical if you book today via Love Theatre for performances from 24/05 - 15/06 and they are actually good seats available! secure.lovetheatre.com/book/1GWZL-t...

Shucked 🌽 Definitely the corniest musical you are likely to see, filled with puns, dad jokes and double entendres. The cast expertly deliver with a tongue in cheek attitude and are excellent at breaking the fourth wall ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thanks for the reply, I've gone for front row centre of stalls. Well prepared to miss some stuff on the booth as obviously we will be directly behind the sound mixer!

Was the view quite restricted on the front row for Stereophonic? Thinking of buying front row for West End. Any tips on whether it's best to be left, right or centre to avoid restricted viewing?

Any tips on whether it's best to be left, right or centre to avoid restricted viewing? Assuming West End is same layout!

Here We Are but into the second act you will probably wish you weren't! The music seems to stop and everything gets a bit too repetitive. First act is a good watch though with some stand out songs and laugh out loud moments performed by a star studded cast ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Mischief have done it again with The Comedy About Spies. If you loved Bank Robbery and all of their other great shows then this is unmissable. Hilarious from start to finish with an amazing set that really brings their physical comedy alive ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ @mischiefcomedy.bsky.social @spiescomedy.bsky.social
