Visually superb, at times stunning (the start of act 2 is magnificent)

Great dancing, complex and demanding

Fine singing

So full of energy and brilliantly lit

It was Andrew Lloyd Weber - Les Miserables - Saturday Night Fever rolled into one.

It was more a production than what I’d call a panto.  Not funny enough for me.  If only it had been full of Irish accents… much too many nondescript accents for me.

Even though I can’t disguise my disappointment at the small amount of audience participation and the spectacular production values, I say go see it.  It is wonderful.  Part of me loved it to bits and I was incredibly impressed.  This can only go from strength to strength.

A 58 year old man isn’t the right person to review a panto.  I wouldn’t pay any attention to what I think…
