Tensions are high, candidates are preparing for battle, and a storm is brewing. Braving the eye of the storm is an MP, a war veteran, and an unfortunate policeman. Talk about perfect timing - amid the smear campaigns of the impending election, the play perfectly blends in. But the subject matter is surprisingly less satire and more horror. Each character delivers blows and suffers wounds in return. As the trio navigates through a labyrinth of loyalty, responsibility, and the harsh realities of political life, you’re left wondering - is there a place for charity in politics?

“Corden reintroduces himself as a dialled-down funnyman and it’s good to have him back on the British stage”
Arifa Akbar,
The Guardian4/5
"Anna Maxwell Martin excels as a good MP, while James Corden’s ex-soldier shows he can be dark as well as funny"
Sarah Hemming,
Financial Times4/5
“gripping, comic and, ultimately, moving.”
Natasha Tripney,
The Evening Standard3/5
"Corden gets a chance to flex different theatrical muscles in Joe Penhall’s play while Anna Maxwell Martin is as reliable as ever"

The show was amazing. We enjoyed our stay, everything was perfect. It was so worth it, the next time we're in London we would come again and see this amazing show.

ABBA Voyage
Erik Sjodin
I saw ABBA first time in 1973 before they became famous in my hometown Lycksele. This show was excellent good in many ways. Especially the moves from in coordination between movies and the avatars. That made them more real.. A masterpiece from start to the end!! First time i cry in a show like this. Thd sound was better then in reality. Such a great job all of you made for all of us.. MAGIC.

ABBA Voyage
Andreasson Ralf Denny
Best of the best!! Not only was Abba "there" but Céline Dion was in the audience on this wonderful evening. Stylish lighting and incredibly authentic that you could almost believe it was 1974 again. Good recharge before at Snoozbar outside the arena. Worth every €.

The booking experience was both quick and easy. One suggestion is that if you use the underground to Victoria which exit to use from the station as we chose the wrong one and it took some time to find the theatre.

Booked day before for myself and mum as found ourselves in London and fancied a show. Took a chance on Mrs Doubtfire and all I can say is that it was fabulous from start to finish. Such energy and talent by the cast. Loved it.
