Here’s what we think: Review by Headout

If you've ever wished you could mash together Les Misérables with a dash of Hamilton and the plotline of The Great British Bake Off, all set to the sounds of ABBA, Showstopper: The Improvised Musical is your wish fulfilled – and then some. This is not just a musical; it's a high-wire act of comedic brilliance where the audience calls the shots, and the cast somehow turns those wild suggestions into a fully-fledged musical, complete with catchy tunes, coherent(ish) storylines, and side-splitting gags.

It was wonderful and genuinely surprising! My daughter and I travelled from Italy—she studies musical theatre in Turin—and she was absolutely thrilled. The quality of the show was exceptional, with a flawless 360° stage presence: every movement, every intention, every voice was fully embodied and alive. What impressed me even more is that, despite being seated in the upper gallery, we could see and hear everything perfectly—an important detail that truly speaks to the production’s excellence and care for the audience. Thank you for such a powerful and generous experience! I also loved the English audience, whose lively and responsive energy created a beautiful dialogue with the performers. WOW!

This show was fantastic - high energy and a celebration of each Queen individually and as a group. I attended with my 16 year old theater daughter and we had a wonderful time. Despite it being a busy Sunday afternoon show before their evening performance, a couple performers took the time to stop outside and chat, sign, take photos with the group waiting outside, which was greatly appreciated. Thank you for an excellent overall experience. View from my seat: dress circle G 17

The show was wonderful; even though it's such a long play, it's incredibly entertaining and the time just flies by. We were in the stalls and the view was great! Not only does the story draw you in, but the special effects and the actors' performances never cease to amaze you.

The dancers' performance was exceptional! The atmosphere, with the theme of becoming the perfect man, was fantastic! The performers are very professional, and consent is always a top priority! It was the perfect evening, especially for a bachelorette party!

Titanique

Experience

I was able to get a last minute ticket for Titanique at a very reasonable price. While I had partially obstructed view, I was still able to see everything just fine. This show was incredible! Absolutely hilarious and fantastic performances and I would recommend it in a heartbeat to any fan of Titanic.
