0Here’s what we think: Review by Headout
Set in a 1950s Italian-American neighborhood by the Brooklyn Bridge, A View from the Bridge follows Eddie, an Italian immigrant who endures a fading relationship with his wife Beatrice while harboring a troubling obsession with her niece, Catherine, and a deep distrust and hatred for her lover, Rodolpho. On the surface a tale of obsession, this play as much about community and loyalty. Pulitzer-winning playwright Arthur Miller hoped to portray the lives of people living by the New York docks, from their tragic stories to the seedy corruption that punctuated their experiences, and it’s safe to say this production certainly captures these bleak nuances. The themes are uncomfortable, but it’s the kind of drama that has you gripped, unable to look away, desperately hoping it all works out in the end.

Arifa Akbar,
The Guardian4/5
“Arthur Miller’s story of family, masculinity and immigrant struggles could seem dated but a brilliant cast bring out uncomfortably modern resonances.”
Dominic Cavendish,
The Telegraph4/5
“This is a gripping revival of a Miller masterpiece – and West can take his place alongside the great past interpreters of the central role.”
Sarah Crompton,
What's On Stage3/5
“Aspects of the drama – the desperation of the migrants, the shrinking nature of poverty and a man’s inability to examine his own nature – resonate, even if the specific circumstances have dated.”

The show was amazing. We enjoyed our stay, everything was perfect. It was so worth it, the next time we're in London we would come again and see this amazing show.

ABBA Voyage

I saw ABBA first time in 1973 before they became famous in my hometown Lycksele. This show was excellent good in many ways. Especially the moves from in coordination between movies and the avatars. That made them more real.. A masterpiece from start to the end!! First time i cry in a show like this. Thd sound was better then in reality. Such a great job all of you made for all of us.. MAGIC.

ABBA Voyage

Best of the best!! Not only was Abba "there" but Céline Dion was in the audience on this wonderful evening. Stylish lighting and incredibly authentic that you could almost believe it was 1974 again. Good recharge before at Snoozbar outside the arena. Worth every €.

The booking experience was both quick and easy. One suggestion is that if you use the underground to Victoria which exit to use from the station as we chose the wrong one and it took some time to find the theatre.

Booked day before for myself and mum as found ourselves in London and fancied a show. Took a chance on Mrs Doubtfire and all I can say is that it was fabulous from start to finish. Such energy and talent by the cast. Loved it.
