Bridge Theatre – until 28 May
11 well-deserved Olivier Nominations – worth it just for the on-stage talent. Sondheim’s most commercial musical – at the Bridge – I am looking forward to it.

Wyndhams Theatre – Until 12 May
From the writer of Prima Facie – Rosamund Pike leads. So well done throughout – the directing, stage design, lighting, and acting all really good. Definitely one of the best I saw last year, and definitely deserving of a West End run.

Phoenix Theatre
My vote for the most entertaining show in the West End at the moment.
I saw for the first time having never seen Stranger things and loved it – I thought it was so immensely entertaining. I liked it so much I went a second time.
My one criticism is it feels it could be trimmed a couple of points however, this is because it does some work to fill out some lore for the stranger things world – and even there it didn’t make the thing feel slow or lacking pace. I’d love to go again. I may give it my vote for the most entertaining show in the West End at the moment.
Guilgud Theatre
As good as you’d want from Oliver – technically first class and doesn’t hold back.
The current version is (I think) as good as you’d want from Oliver (it will be hard to top) – at every point I think they made excellent creative choices to put together something truly outstanding. It is funny, entertaining, technically first class and doesn’t hold back from the darker side of the story. With or without children in tow It is one of my current top recommendations.
Lyric Theatre
Great acting, singing, staging and all-round superb story-telling.
sung through musical loosely based on Orpheus and Euridice – I have seen 3 times and gong again with my 11 year old. 1940s jazz(ish) inspired style – very well done. Superb story telling. I am very keen to see the current cast – some excellent talent.
