What travelers are saying
- Sluggo57Calgary, Canada9 contributionsAnyone who liked the Fawlty Towers TV show is going to enjoy this dinner theatre event. Very entertaining! However the service could be better, particularly the pace at reception and at the bar before the show.Review of: Faulty Towers The Dining ExperienceWritten September 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- amberfrances92Portsmouth, UK85 contributionsTruly brilliant. Wow what a show. Really spectacular.
The performance and story adaption to theatre is fantastic. The costume design is really something else though.
Amazing show, I would love to go again.
There are a number of sites that sell tickets so it pays to shop around. We brought our seats a few weeks out direct from the theatre website and paid 20GBP/seat for a Friday evening sitting. Many tickets go for significantly more than this.
Our seats were in the third row of the grand (highest) circle) and I thought we had a really good view. Not sure if I would pay the typical 100-200GBP more for other seats.Review of: The Lion King Theater Show LondonWritten August 2, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- amyalreadygone134 contributionsWOW! One of the best musicals I’ve ever seen! The cast were passionate and incredibly talented, the story line was easy to follow (for the non Tina buffs in our group) and the show gave everyone the chance to sing along at the end like you were at a Tina concert! The staff at the Ayldwich Theatre were so helpful with my elderly relatives who have mobility issues and not only helped us to our seats but also to toilets during the busy half time. We had an absolute ball at this show and will be back to see it again.

- Cyfugi179 contributionsThis was a present for my wife and can’t say I was overly looking forward to it. Well what can I say, it was incredible and I thou rally enjoyed it and would love to go and do it again some day ! Visual effects, sound and music where incredible - highly recommendReview of: ABBA VoyageWritten September 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Rachel EvansCambridge, UK430 contributionsWe enjoyed this trip and show very much! The coach is very comfortable, but it took 1 hour to go the 6 miles to the arena. Not sure why we cross crossed over the river to get there, but got there on time. The ride back was even longer….
ABBA was fantastic! Amazing light and sound show. If you didn’t know, you would think they were standing there on stage!

So finely performed.

We were escorted to the entrance after an eagle-eyed staff member spotted us queueing at the bar upstairs, which was handy as we didn’t realise you could order from your seat.
The cocktails are standard London prices, which is to be expected.
The dancers are amazing! All lovely-looking lads who clearly work hard & enjoy what they do. I was the lucky recipient of a lap dance too!
All of the staff are really friendly and it’s because of their hard work & effort that we had a great night.Review of: Magic Mike Live!

They are all talented but the lady that plays Donna is outstanding, her double number with slipping through my fingers into winner takes it all leaves the crowd stunned and tearful.

- Andrew MSurfers Paradise, Australia129 contributionsJust spectacular! We loved the musical, definitely the best we have seen in over a decade. Clever scripting adapted for a more modern era, musical score fantastic and so many laughs.

- Tyler Donahoe10 contributionsI’m not big on musicals but this one looked interesting to me. I love the Back to the Future movies and this play did not disappoint. Even my son and daughter were fans. The special effects with the set were super cool and the cast was amazing!Review of: Back To The Future Theatre ShowWritten July 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- chumpstacharlieNorthampton, UK40 contributionsWent with family to this fantastic production; in the beautiful historic, Theatre Royal. Our family group were seated in the balcony; there were booster cushions provided for the smaller members of our party, which gave them a perfect view of the stage.
I think I am one of the very few people who hasn’t seen the Disney movie, I was not disappointed. The cast; singing, stage sets and special effects were great. The ‘Let it go’ song and the dress change was brilliant and enjoyed by all.
A great, enjoyable show for the whole family to enjoy.Review of: Frozen The MusicalWritten September 14, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Sharon K4 contributionsWe were lucky to get tickets for this by going to the theatre to book direct. We booked in the morning for the evening performance and got great seats on row F in the Stalls for £99 each.
We decided to take our seats early and we’re so pleased we did as we saw the full pre show which was great for setting the scene and atmosphere.
From the minute you walk in to take your seat, you are hit with an amazing set which encompasses the theatre, we’re talking an elephant, multiple chandeliers, dancing birdcages and a bar at the side of the stage.
During the pre show, the cast are moving around, posing, getting drinks and dancing in the cages, a great slow, atmospheric pre show, then the show starts and you are transported to a world of beautiful costumes, singing and dancing with the love story running through it.
I admit, it took my breath away and my eyes watered in parts, not the sad part but the dancing and singing , wow,it blew me away.
My theatre partners that night are musical theatre professionals and were blown away by the show, like me, one of them cried too.
When the show finished and everyone was leaving, we didn’t hear one negative comment.
When I am next visiting London, this will be top of my list of things to do.
Top tips, get seats in the stalls if you can and get to your seat early so you don’t miss any of the pre show.
You can get Cabaret tables in front of the stage but you become part of the show with cast moving along the stage amongst the tables but I feel these are not the best seats as you will be looking up all the time and won’t have the best view of the main stage area.Review of: Moulin Rouge The Musical Entrance Ticket in LondonWritten September 22, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The actors playing matilda and Miss Trunch bull were especially brilliant. Only annoying thing was, with the show being targeted towards children, obviously a lot of children were in the audience making so much noise with crisp and sweets packets ruining it a little.Review of: Matilda Theater Show in LondonWritten April 5, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
