Here's what we think

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.

4/5

“Arthur Miller’s story of family, masculinity and immigrant struggles could seem dated but a brilliant cast bring out uncomfortably modern resonances.”

4/5

“This is a gripping revival of a Miller masterpiece – and West can take his place alongside the great past interpreters of the central role.”

3/5

“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.”

Hamilton

Experience
Kimberley Arnett
The performance took you on a journey through the late 1700s America, capturing the life of Alexander Hamilton until his death in 1804. The stage set... the ambience... every scene made you feel like you were right there in every room with him. Overall the musical was captivating and very entertaining from start to finish. Cudos to the cast for a job well done!

Disney's Hercules

Experience
Nneka Alleyne
Staff were incredibly friendly, visible and helpful for navigating the theater. The production faced a technically issue about two minutes into the show, leading to a delay of approx. 40 minutes. While this was unfortunate, crew kept us in the loop and once the show resumed it ran smoothly. It was a phenomenal show with incredibly talented actors.

Mamma Mia!

Experience
Tiffany J Mockford
My daughters and I were so excited to see Mamma Mia on our first trip to London! We met our aunt, and a dear family friend, before the show for a Mamma Mia high tea and then we watched the musical. The theatre is gorgeous, and the cast had such energy. We loved it.

The concert was just amazing—the special effects alone were sensational. I’d go see it again in a heartbeat. It’s just great how ABBA pulled it off, and the organizers too.
