November 4, 20195 yr I had to write an article about this for my job today, lol. Really want to see this, the song list is amazing *.*
November 4, 20195 yr Sounds amazing, I fear this will take the same route as Viva Forever, but I hope i'm proved wrong.
November 4, 20195 yr Author The reviews have been mostly positive from what I've seen! I think the audience is there too. It's not quite as niche as a Spice Girls musical, so I feel like it will succeed.
November 9, 20195 yr Author It's supposed to be so uplifting (it's not a surprise when you see the song list) and joyous. Think me and my mates are gonna go sometime next year.
November 10, 20195 yr I went to see this on the day it opened in the West End last Saturday and it’s honestly the best show I’ve seen. It’s really funny and uplifting. I nervously met Max Martin there too as he was in the audience. He agreed to a photo with me
November 10, 20195 yr Author OMG what a legend!!! I'd die if I saw him tbh. I can't thank him enough for basically being the reason why I love pop music as much as I do. He literally shaped my life :lol:
November 19, 20195 yr I saw this last night and was actually really disappointed. The idea is such a good one and it could’ve been done so well but I thought it felt really amateur and pantomime-esque quite a lot of the time! A lot of the songs felt really shoehorned in for the sake of it and there were way too many ‘yaaaas’, ‘I’m LIVING for it’, ‘this party is LIT’ lines that just came across quite cringeworthy :’) The singer who played Juliet was incredible though, as was the Anne Hathaway character and many of the others, I just wish the whole thing had been executed better. It was great seeing so many great songs being performed on the stage but some of them fell really flat (poor ‘Overprotected’ 😭).
April 9, 20205 yr Omg ffs not me just realising we made this forum to include theatre and bump this thread ON THE DAY I WAS MEANT TO BE SEEING THIS 😭😭😭😂 a messT of timing
January 7, 20232 yr Author I'm FINALLY going to see this on the last day (at the 14:30 performance though) on March 25th. Gutted it's ending it's West End run, but it's now up and running on Broadway in the US though! (Their soundtrack is available on Spotify & Apple Music too). There's talk about this doing a full production tour too so if you haven't been able to make it to the London shows, then there's a high chance they'll be coming to a city near you soon! I'm just ready to have an absolute BLAST!
January 7, 20232 yr It’s coming to Melbourne soon. I really need to stop procrastinating and buy tickets.
March 25, 20232 yr Author Saw it today and it was SO GOOD! Came out of it on a HUGE high! So feel good and nostalgic. Just brilliant fun. Can't wait for it to tour!
March 25, 20232 yr Saw it today and it was SO GOOD! Came out of it on a HUGE high! So feel good and nostalgic. Just brilliant fun. Can't wait for it to tour! Great to hear! Going on April 15, very much looking forward to it.
April 15, 20232 yr Just got back from seeing this today in Melbourne and it was brilliant. I took my mum and she wasn’t sure what to expect, but walking it she said it was fantastic. She absolutely loved it too.
April 15, 20232 yr Author Very glad to hear that! My friends were in a similar position to your mum and they also said the same thing pretty much! Just such a feel good, party! One of my fave theatre going experiences!
April 15, 20232 yr That’s great to hear! She also came out of it say that she knew far more of the songs then she expected to know. Which shouldn’t have been a surprise. :lol:
