I wasn’t expecting to be this impressed, but Hercules Live delivered one of the most electrifying performances I’ve seen in London. The production is visually stunning, the vocals are powerhouse-level, and the storytelling balances humour, emotion, and pure epic energy perfectly.
From the moment the show started, the cast had the entire audience hooked. Hercules himself is unforgettable — charismatic, funny, and so incredibly talented. The chemistry between the performers is insane, the choreography is sharp, and the live music brings the whole myth to life in the most magical way.
Every detail is so well thought out: the costumes, the lighting, the staging… it all feels grand, immersive, and full of heart. You can feel how much passion the cast and crew put into this show.
If you’re in London and looking for a night of pure joy, insane talent, and a show that leaves you buzzing as you leave the theatre — Hercules Live is absolutely a must-see. I’d watch it again in a heartbeat! 💫🔥

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.

This is a phenomenal theater. I just came back from Hercules, the Disney production, and I'm absolutely happy about my seat. I had E19. It was up in the balcony. It's the highest area you can get a ticket, and it was an exceptional price. I had such a good view. I was so impressed about the production itself. It was absolutely amazing, and the cast was phenomenal. The power of voices was something else. I had chills the whole time, and even my inner child was happy because I got a mint chocolate ice cream in the break between. If you want to see a musical that makes your heart happy, then Disney's Hercules is absolutely the right one for you. 🤩⚡️

One of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. An incredible experience. A wonderful show. The theatre is very elegant, and even from the seats up high you can see perfectly. The set design was amazing — the effects, the lights. A show designed for all ages. The language is easy to understand even for foreigners, and the music is truly special. I would come back to see it again! Highly recommend

Dutifully simplified adaptation of the Heracles myth. Diverse cast, perfectly cast with the right irony in the individual parts and in the often present chorus. Hades and the chorus (almost gospel) very versatile and expressive stand out. Impressive staging for sure, as well as the costumes of the chorus in particular, always different and sparkling. Note to the athetics of the lead actor.
