A punchy and fun production of a classic musical

The residents of Avenue Q are a somewhat peculiar pick ‘n’ mix of colourful puppets, unlikely couples and a monster or two, all sharing in dreams, concerns and uncensored humour. It’s children’s programme styling -denoted by chirpy repetitive tunes, bright colours and teaching video-esque animation screens- paired with it’s very adult content, made for an atmosphere of juxtaposition in which the very upfront nature of this shows comedy absolutely thrived. Avenue Q is able to effortlessly weave the hysterically obscene ...

This musical is unique, fresh and fantastic. A true product of hard work and talented individuals.

Pros: Strong acting which created a present, dark and twisted atmosphere Cons: Some risky creative choices were made which didn’t quite land for me and seemed peculiar Best known for it’s miraculous ability to engage with both the twisted and the tender, Sondheim’s musical Sweeney Todd is a tough balancing act to pull off.

The two find comfort and joy in each other’s company while ...

A wonderful evening with profound thoughts, sharp humour and extremely intelligent work; a show not to miss!

Pros: Blistering score, faultless vocals and a mesmerising story. A well produced and executed piece. Cons: Not a family friendly show, with some disturbing scenes and strong language. Upon introduction to the concept of this musical, I was sceptical as to how a concert-esque staging could do justice to such a rich piece of storytelling. Needless to say, my scepticism was immediately withdrawn. Greenwich Theatre is neatly tucked away yet boasts an outstanding space. For Lizzie the auditorium was aptly filled with ...
