5 stars wow, just wow! Took my girl to see My Neighbour Totoro and it was pure magic from start to finish. The puppets are incredible, those little soot sprites scurrying around, the massive fluffy Totoro that makes you want to hug him, and the Catbus zooming across the stage had everyone grinning like kids. The music is beautiful and the whole thing feels so gentle and heartwarming, especially the bits with the sisters dealing with their mum being ill. It really captures that Studio Ghibli wonder without feeling forced. My girlfriend was glued the whole time, and even I got a bit emotional in the quiet moments. One of the best things I’ve seen in London, if you love the film or just want something joyful and special, go see it! Totally worth it.

What a truly beautiful show! When booking I was excited to see how they would bring this lovely story to a live action/puppetry version. Without giving too much away, my mind was blown! This is a must-see for adults and children alike. The cast are amazing, Totoro and his friends will take your breath away, and the puppeteers must be congratulated for their amazing expertise. It's a spellbinding production that will stay with me for a very long time.

I was a fan of the movie to begin with but this completely blew me away. I believe it's a story everyone can take something from, regardless of age. The stage production far surpassed my expectations and they were already quite high after seeing Spirited Away. A story about two girls going through a hard and dark period and the first spirit who helps them keep fear from taking over, with so many funny moments in between, it was an absolute joy to watch!

“Wow is too small a word!” (Broadway World). The “jaw-dropping” (Metro) multi-award-winning My Neighbour Totoro has found its new home in the West End and is now booking until August 2026.

Find your spirit with this "profoundly magical experience" (Elle) and winner of six Olivier awards, as the five-star, widely acclaimed adaptation of Studio Ghibli’s animated feature film appears on stage at the Gillian Lynne Theatre.

It's more a play than a comedy but we just LOVED it. We are Totoro's fan and all the details were there.
