Moulin Rouge!, the musical that blends the seductive performances of the Parisian courtesans with an epic tale of romance and a touch of dramatic flair, showcases the best of what the stage has to offer: catchy earworms, mesmerizing routines, breathtaking costumes, captivating performances, and a pure dedication to the art of entertaining. Based on the 2001 Baz Luhrmann film of the same name, Moulin Rouge! has dazzled audiences and critics alike, setting aside any doubts early skeptics may have had about the show’s ability to live up to its predecessor.

Dominic Cavendish,
The Guardian4/5
“The whole experience is awash with sure-footed dance: sensuous, fleet and duly delivering those signature can-can moves in a riot of petticoat lifting and high-kicking."
Sarah Crompton,
WhatsOnStage4/5
"From the second you enter you know what to expect: a musical with a heart of gold that seeks to entertain and overwhelm in equal measure. It is so over the top, it's irresistible.”
Marianka Swain,
The Arts Desk4/5
“It’s kitsch, joyful hedonism writ large, bursting with sparklers, streamers and technicolour vitality – and powered by a cast who know only too well that you should perform every show as though it could be your last. Irresistible entertainment."
Kate Wyver,
The Guardian4/5
"There is a lot to love: with a wonderfully wild energy throughout, it’s happily queerer than the film, and the well-known songs really are spectacular."
Suzy Evans,
London Theatreland4/5
"Timbers is not afraid to use every tool in his directing arsenal with this self-aware, but not self-conscious, amalgamation of vintage and modern, classic and contemporary. Every creative team member is clearly working overtime to deliver excellence and opulence."

My Neighbour Totoro
Margarida Massas
I was a fan of the movie to begin with but this completely blew me away. I believe it's a story everyone can take something from, regardless of age. The stage production far surpassed my expectations and they were already quite high after seeing Spirited Away. A story about two girls going through a hard and dark period and the first spirit who helps them keep fear from taking over, with so many funny moments in between, it was an absolute joy to watch!

Come Alive
Jasper Van De Maele
What an experience, to call this show anything less than a spectacular performance is an understatement.. I truly felt that everybody on stage is so massively talented and they all work together to create such ambiance for the audience! I can't count the amount of times the actors were interacting with me or other audience members. The singing, dancing and acrobatics were so magnetic to watch I was sining all the way home

Great seats, fab concierge staff and efficient barstaff. The cast and crew demonstrated their passion and professuinalism for the show and their parts within in it. I thoroughly enjoyed tonight's performance as much as I did when I first saw the show many years ago.

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Riko Iwasaki
As a lifelong Harry Potter fan visiting from Japan, seeing "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" at the Palace Theatre in London has been a huge dream of mine. And let me tell you, it exceeded every single expectation!
From the very first moment, I was completely spellbound. Honestly, it didn't feel like I was just watching a play; it felt like real magic was happening right there in front of my eyes. The special effects and illusions are absolutely mind-blowing—I’m still trying to figure out how they did some of those things!
The stagecraft is breathtaking, and the cast was phenomenal, bringing the Wizarding World back to life in the most incredible way. The hours just flew by because I was so drawn into the story.
This experience was unforgettable and easily the highlight of my entire trip to the UK. It was truly magical and worth traveling across the world for. A must-see for every Potter fan!
