The ballads of the 2 young leads were super boring (in my opinion) BUT otherwise it was supreme. I first saw Sutton Foster 12 years ago on Broadway and she’s even better today - she sings like a dream and taps like a demon. The songs are so charming&the choreography is amazing. Felicity Kendall doesn’t really have enough to do but made me lol with some gems, Robert Lindsay is fun&silly as a gangster trying to be more menacing than he is, Carly Mercedes Dyer was great as his moll Erma, but it’s Sutton who shines forever in my dreams. This show is pure joy&I’d recommend it to all. Delightful! Delicious! 🚢Read more →

Hi octane razzmatazz and playful shenanigans aboard SS American, as gangsters (disguised as priests) and their molls, rub shoulders with aristocrats and where every other line of dialogue is an eyebrow-raising wisecrack which serves as a prelude to one of Cole Porter’s wonderful, toe-tapping tunes. Look out for “Blow, Gabriel, Blow” which brings the house down and the energised and uplifting title number “Anything Goes” where the entire company (led by Tony Award winner Sutton Foster) dust-off their tap shoes and blow the roof off the Barbican. Fantastic fun and frolics.Read more →

Spectacular! The first big musical I see post-Covid and it didn’t disappoint at all. The set was beautiful, the songs and tap daning were really fun. Robert Lindsay (Moonface Martin) was a highlight, but Sutton Foster (Reno Sweeney) stole the show, she was born for this role! An endless standing ovation right before the interval, and a standing ovation at the end - both very well deserved. 👏🏽Read more →

Going into this, I had no expectations. I knew nothing about the show, and to be honest, I only went to see it because of Sutton Foster. But it was just so amazing. Sutton was amazing, but Robert Lindsay was an absolute highlight for me. It was so funny, the costume and set was gorgeous, and that tap number at the end of act one was phenomenal!Read more →

I’m not convinced this has aged well. Of course it’s set in the 1930’s, that’s not the issue, the sets and costume were fun and the were some good performances (and some not so good) but it just feels like it misses the mark even for a revival. That said, there’s some great music and dance and a couple of the big numbers were impressive.Read more →

Simply fabulous! A must see. Enticing storyline, very funny jokes, beautiful dancing (including some tap dance): there's really do much to like. Sutton Foster care excels in everything. The passion and intensity with which every scene is delivered make this an amazing night.Read more →

A wonderful old fashioned fizzing revival of Cole Porter musical not seen in London in 20 years. The stunning Sutton Foster, a Broadway Tony award winning import leads a top notch cast. An unmissable good looking funny, heart warming, toe-tapping show!Read more →

So good I had to go see it twice within the same month. Sutton Foster and the ensemble shine in the performance; the rest of the main cast is also as strong as can be. May just pop in once more before closing (alas, Sutton will be gone by then).Read more →

Wasn’t expecting it to me as fun! Although it does not have many memorable numbers, it compensates with humour and great acting. In a style of old school comedies like “Men prefer blondes”. Definitely a positive surprise!Read more →

The best ever show seen in the last 4 years... And I saw a lot of musicals! I want to learn tip tap, i want to sign and I want to have that gorgeous sense of humour AmazingRead more →

Absolutely no story line! Kerry Ellis was lacklustre and lacked energy and in my opinion can not dance! Thank **** for the incredible ensemble who carried the entire show!Read more →

Barry Crow

Absolutely Brilliant show. An uplifting experience, great cast, great music and a well deserved standing ovation at both half time and the end of the show.Read more →
