    Amazing performance on stage ! It was the first time I had such an experience. The actors are perfect. My husband was also very impressed. We are French and we do not have such shows in France 🥰

    An absolutely unforgettable experience at the Stranger Things theater in London! It was a dream come true for my 15-year-old daughter, who loves theater and is a huge fan of the show… and that dream far exceeded all our expectations ✨ As for me, I was a little apprehensive: a three-hour show while having limited mobility wasn’t going to be a walk in the park. And yet… everything was perfect. The venue, the atmosphere, the staging, the effects… everything was spectacular. I particularly enjoyed the intermission, which gave us a chance to catch our breath, but more importantly, to extend this incredible immersion. A breathtaking show—without a doubt our most beautiful memory of London ❤️ I recommend it 100%!

    We absolutely loved this performance of My Neighbour Totoro! The stage decorations, the beautiful music, and the incredibly talented actors were all truly amazing. The production was so immersive and well-done that, for a second, I genuinely thought there was a real Totoro right there on the stage! Most importantly, my kids were so happy and completely captivated from start to finish. I highly recommend this magical and unforgettable experience to any family.

    The play was extremely funny. We have never laughed so much and almost non stop through the performance. The actors were amazing and performed their role perfectly. It was amazing to see what they were capable off. Even higher up on stage without safety ropes. Incredible. Will definitely come again!
