Absolutely fantastic
Super funny enjoyed very much
Our group of 4 found the play very funny. Even before the play started the 'technicians' were getting us in the mood for a fabulous show. The falling down scenery, the moving dead bodies, the wrong props was hilarious. The understudy and heroine fight was hysterical. The stunts that should have hurt the actors, felt quite real. The audience laughed so loudly in places that we didn't always hear what was being said on stage, but I don't think it mattered for the plot! Well done to all actors on stage when the walls fell in on them - a close call! Laughed so much. Excellent show. Well done to all.
This was a really fun and thought-through show and I laughed a lot!
what a fabulous laugh out loud experience. The casts ability to deliver a quick fire activity loaded extravaganza. perfect for the soul.
We laughed the entire time! My kids absolutely loved it. Well done!
I have not laughed this much for years. The actors were all brilliant and the performance started before the performance started, which will be more understandable if you go to see this play, it's well worth it.
We only made it through the first half as we found the play to be so over the top, hammed up, Childish, pantomime stuff, that we couldn’t stand a second half helping!! My review - stay home!! ????
The play was too slapstick and frantic for us. The acting and set design was brilliant.
The play that goes wrong, is funniest show i have ever seen. Entertaining even before the curtain goes up, so aim to arrive early. Could not stop laughing all the way through.
Brilliant performance, definitely recommend
Very entertaining, lots of laughs.
