7Here’s what we think: Review by Headout
The famous rock musical We Will Rock You is playing at London Coliseum. Despite being 21 years old the musical celebrating Queen's greatest hits has never sounded and looked fresher thanks to an incredible cast. On paper, it sounds too conflicting to smash together Queen’s rock hits and a musical format. Don’t be put off though because it works. I was sceptical that it would seem like a tribute band but this was not the case. It is a full-on production from start to finish that magically seems to run parallel with Queen’s legacy but does not get too close and avoids becoming a tribute show. The storyline is set in the future and is very ‘self-mocking’. If I am honest the storyline is not what makes this musical great, you could be unaware of the story and still have a great evening thanks to the music and some of the jokes in between the songs. It’s a funny, light-hearted show and if you are expecting this when you go into the theatre you’ll have a fabulous night.

Bea Maynard,
London Theatre4/5
"We Will Rock You: That’s the show's title, the cast's promise. And, they do nothing less. Twenty years after this futuristic masterpiece took to the stage, it continues to wow the crowds in this spectacular production, that is simply magnifico in some places and slightly gaga in others."
Daz Gale,
All That Dazzles3/5
"We Will Rock You may not be the smartest show in the world but it does have a lot going for it. While the book lets it down somewhat, it is salvaged by a truly incredible cast, some stunning moments and, obviously, that iconic Queen songbook. "
Alex Wood,
Whats On Stage3/5
“Let’s face it – no one is expecting We Will Rock You to provide a Pulitzer-winning script or genre-defining creative expertise. But if audiences are there for some Queen classics, sung by the cream of the MT crop, that’s exactly what they’re going to be getting.”

What a fantastic show; the performers were excellent. This was my first time seeing this show as I wanted to get the memory of the films out of my head, and I am glad I eventually saw it. The stage sets and costumes were great; the singing was out of this world. It is well worth a visit and the tickets were reasonably priced.

The cast was truly amazing. I laughed, i cried and went throughn every emotion possible. But mostly I was just amazed what these people do there on stage. Not only were they amazing singers, but also so impressive when it comes to acring, comedy or performing. Our seats were great as well, i was a bit worried since they were last row but honestly it couldn't have been a better experience.

The Comedy About Spies
Mark Sell
A sold-out house, comedy with lots of slapstick and plenty of action on stage, with the typical English mystery twist at the end. For German visitors: don't be surprised by the queue outside 10 minutes before the show starts; the play starts on time. And wine and beer at your seat? No problem!

Much Ado About Nothing

We enjoyed the 'Much ado about nothing' play yesterday. The cast were all very well rehearsed and suited for their respective roles. I have already recommended this to others in last day.

Phantom of the Opera
Beatriz Jing García Segura
The Phantom of the Opera is a perfect show to rest and relax for 2h30+ minutes in the center of London. If it rains or you are tired of walking, it serves as an unbeatable break and musical entertainment. The music, the songs, the costumes, and the production—everything was fantastic. A beautiful theater and clean restrooms. You have the option to get a drink or something before or during the show, and there is merchandise to remember the performance by, such as magnets, bags, and even a red rose with the song lyrics on a red ribbon. Beautiful.

Phantom of the Opera
Alexis Anderson
Phantom of the Opera is so incredible. This is my 3rd or 4th time seeing it, and it never gets old. The actor who played the Phantom had such strong, beautiful vocals. The entire experience was lovely from the people at the entrance to those working at the bar to of course the musical itself. Our seats were also great for the price and we could see the entire stage very well, even with a peak of the orchestra. I would recommend anyone considering seeing Phantom to do it here in London!
