A stellar evening from beginning to end: A well-organized and speedy entry with kind and helpful staff. A beautiful, historic venue. A show that started on time and featured all the high-energy professionals one would expect to see on a London stage. Hamilton engages from start to finish, and the gorgeous, emotional ending was priceless. Well done to the cast and crew: hip, hip, hooray!

I will never be able to see a Michael Jackson concert live but MJ the musical captured a fraction of his stardom and gave us the opportunity to see a momentary glimpse of the past and a shadow of the king of pop. It was emotional and captivating. Thank you for an amazing birthday treat.

An absolute MUST if you're going to London and want to see a West End show. I've seen & been in many musicals before but this one truely was awe inspiring. The costumes and movement were phenomenal and the music was so magical. Try to get an aisle seat if possible to get the best experience, but anywhere you sit, you will have an amazing time as they use the space so well.
