Love the show! Went on the second preview evening.
Amazing! The show was a breath of fresh air from start to finish. I left the theatre with a big grin on my face. Had a difficult few months personally and this is what the doctor ordered!
I will be back!

Went to the first night preview - absolutely fantastic show, am now trying to see how many of my friends I can get to go with me - all at separate times of course so I can see it again and again and agani!!! Leanne was fantastic as was Ben, Mel Smith brilliant and Michael Ball convincing as Edna. Well done to everyone for putting the fun back into the West End xx

Saw the show on Friday 2 November - was Ben James Ellis playing the role - didn't look like him at all?
