I think the performances and the costumes made this event unforgettable. I loved how they all had strong voices and great control everything was clear. Every songs were beautiful to listen. They did perform every character in a unique way which reminded us the Disney but in a different way.
I grew up with a version of each character that I loved but the changes were refreshing, in thunes with this era and the kids. Which takes me to the costumes I really appreciate how they mixed Greek traditional patterns with modern styles singular to each characters. The muses were unbelievable ! Each changes of wigs and costumes made me think they couldn't do better but they did ! Each time ! It was colour full, lively, beautiful. Those wigs were so respectful of black peoples hair and the design were different every time and in tune with every muse's personality. I did leave the theatre with stars in my eyes and a strong feeling of nostalgia. I have the feeling that I have seen a one of a kind performance this night and I am so happy that I was able to witness it.
To finish I would like to thanks the staff of the theatre they were really kind and understanding. They handled the show with great care and professionalism.
Thank you for giving us the chance to see this amazing performance.
Ps : I'm sorry if I made some mistakes English isn't my first language.

Why watch Disney's Hercules?
- Prepare for a mythical journey filled with unforgettable heroes, catchy melodies, and Ancient Greece brought to life. Disney’s Hercules is an epic tribute to mythology and self-discovery, directed by Tony-award winner Casey Nicholaw.
- With Hades delivering laugh-out-loud quips and the sassy Muses singing gospel-infused anthems like Zero to Hero, this show is an exhilarating ride of entertainment. With Meg’s unforgettable "I won’t say I’m in love" spirit and Hercules’ adventurous quest through the enchanting realm of Mount Olympus and you have historical hijinks all the way.
- Even gods need a little music, and this electrifying musical took Broadway by storm before it’s West End debut. Broadway World’s Martin Ganeider says “Director Casey Nicholaw created a powerful, family-friendly show with energetic dance moves framed by a massive set design. HERCULES is an eye catcher…”
Ancient Greece has a new hero on the block…after he goes from Zero to hero, that is. This cherished story is now transformed into a stage musical, with wise-cracks, Greek columns and many many trips to the underworld. Featuring music by the renowned Alan Menken, known for Disney hits like Aladdin and The Little Mermaid, and directed by the Tony Award-winning Casey Nicholaw, the show is an extraordinary spectacle for new audiences and the Ancient Greek geeks out there.
Storyline
Hercules is a half-god. Born to Zeus and Hera, Hercules faces a twist when Hades, the underworld's cunning god, poisons him, stripping away his immortality yet leaving his remarkable strength intact.The clever Disney take on the myth introduces Hercules to his mentor, the grumpy satyr Philoctetes, and his love interest, the spirited Megara. Raised as a mortal, he later uncovers his true lineage and resolves to become a legendary hero.

I recently watched Hercules in London, and it was a fantastic experience. The show impressed me with its great visuals, energetic choreography, and a talented cast. The music was a highlight, with iconic songs performed beautifully and outstanding performances from the Muses. The staging, costumes, and special effects created a fun and magical atmosphere that kept the audience engaged throughout. The lead performers were charismatic, and the overall production was polished, entertaining, and full of energy. Whether you’re a Disney fan or simply looking for a great night out, Hercules is an entertaining and uplifting show well worth seeing.

the show was amazing. the costumes were so thoughtful rather than putting the muses in the same outfit or diffrent colours they were all coherant with small changes so you know who was who. they changed some songs from the movie and they were a welcome change and it was such a fun watch. the souls that fly around in the underworld were mazing and such an intresting concept. the cast were amazing and the voices are so hard to put into worlds but overall i would def reccomend this show and watch it why you can. (this is coming from a big hercules fan)

My wife and I came to London mainly because we wanted to see this show. Hercules has always been my favorite Disney cartoon, ever since I was a kid. We also went to Broadway last year, but this is probably still the best musical we’ve ever seen. All the performers were truly excellent; I especially liked the Muses and Hades. To make sure we didn’t miss a thing, we stocked up on souvenirs after the show—including that wonderful tote bag.

First time at Drury Lane theatre and was amazed at how grand it was with modern amenities like the bar and comfy seats The performance itself was incredible, great songs from the film and original songs, paired with lively sets and costumes. The performances were outstanding as well with Hades having our favourite song and Phil was a stand out too We got a Hercules cup from the film when we got drinks at the bar as well. Would 100% recommend and would go again!
