Hamilton completely lives up to the immense hype! From the very first number, the energy is electric. The way the lyrics are written is pure genius. The cast is phenomenal, bringing passion and charisma to every role. The choreography and the rotating stage are also amazing. If you have the chance to see it, take it. Do not throw away your shot!

I already was a huge fan of hamilton before i saw the show in person. Ive waited yeaaarsss to go to london and see it. It took me and my friend a while to get to the theater tho, but when i saw it i cried my eyes out (which was also because ibwas exhausted) huge compliments to Bente Mulan who plays eliza. Her preformance touched me in so many ways. She hit every note perfectly and the finale.. oh my god i never cried so much in my life! Me whole tshirt was wet. Also huge compliments to the one playing hamilton Alexander and genuinely the whole cast. Everyone did sooo good and i was really satisfied.

“Oh, Mary!” is the sort of theatrical chaos the British do best—sharp, cheeky, and gloriously self-aware. The atmosphere was buzzing from the outset, with the audience hanging onto every line as if in on a particularly clever inside joke. The writing is delightfully irreverent, peppered with wit that lands effortlessly, while the performances are delivered with impeccable timing and just the right amount of theatrical flair. What makes it truly memorable is how it balances absurd humour with a surprising touch of depth. The lead, in particular, commands the stage with a marvellous mix of mischief and vulnerability, making even the most outrageous moments feel oddly sincere. It’s bold, brilliantly executed, and leaves you grinning long after the curtain falls.

Oh, Mary!

The whole production of Oh, Mary! was perfect from start to finish. That said, Mason Alexander Park was brilliant, flawless-- a master at their craft!

Top of the theatre last row against the wall and I saw and heard everything ! Brillant performance on Love and Suffering . Live the moment. That's all there is in shadowlands. We are shadows.

Simply incredible, whether you're a big fan or not. It's spectacular and well worth the price! Bear in mind that the actors' conversations are quite fast-paced, so at times it can be a little difficult to understand. But incredible nonetheless.
