Here’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.

"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."

"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. "

“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.”

My Neighbour Totoro

Experience
Antonio De Chiara
Absolutely amazing. The actor were truly stunning both in appearance and acting. There was not a single things that I didn't like. Costumes, performances, staff, musician, singer, the scenic effect department. It's the first time that I went out of a theater by giving a 10/10 experience.

My Neighbour Totoro

Experience
Philipp Thiemo Metz
A very beautiful play with excellent music, a lively production, great actors, and a wonderful atmosphere. You are not allowed to take photos during the performance. The seats were very good, with the best view, and it is a beautiful theater. Everything went great with Headout too, no problems at all. Thank you very much. Would gladly do it again!

Phantom of the Opera

Experience
Dianne Watts
When we arrived by cab, a very friendly young man met us at the curb and looked at our tickets. He shepherded us to the proper entrance line and offered to take our picture. We showed our digital tickets at the door and were in , no problem. We had time to get a drink, look at cool Phantom merchandise, and get settled in our seats before the show started. The theater was more cozy than it appeared on the online seating chart but very charming. The show was fantastic! All the leading parts were handled beautifully. The sets were amazing. The actress who provided the comic relief was outstanding. We had a marvelous time. Highly recommended!

The play *The Mousetrap* has been running for over fifty years, which is my age. Thousands of performances and a constantly renewed joy of discovering the plot and its characters. Classic Agatha Christie. Let's keep the secret!

Les Misérables

Experience
Tan Kay Kheng
Mesmerising to watch this again in London after my first time at the 1000th performance in 1988! The staging, and the ever familiar songs like Who am I?, I Dream a Dream and Empty Chairs at Enpty Tables enthralled me and were moving as ever! Every Les Miserables performance never disappoints!

Stranger Things: The First Shadow

Experience
Nils Bock
I saw Stranger Things: The First Shadow at the theater and was very impressed overall. The production, the atmosphere, and the effects were truly extraordinary and brought the world of Stranger Things to life in a whole new way. The performance in English also worked well for me and captured the mood of the play very well. Unfortunately, my view of the stage was severely restricted as I could only see the bottom half. Most of the time, this wasn't a major issue because the plot and the most important scenes were still easy to understand. However, there were a few parts that took place exclusively in the upper part of the stage. Because of this, I unfortunately couldn't follow them at all or only partially, which detracted slightly from the experience. Despite this, I really enjoyed the play. The story, the actors, and the technical execution were truly worth seeing. I would definitely recommend it, but when choosing seats, I would make sure to have the best possible view of the entire stage.
