What’s On Stage ★★★★★

“This Edwardian Dream is endlessly imaginative, elegantly creative and hilarious enough to evince genuine tears of laughter, it fizzes and froths with wit, energy and an infectious sense of unadulterated joy.

 It’s a landmark production that comes highly recommended.”

 

Oxford Times ★★★★★

Yet again, the Royal’s creative team has raised the bar for Christmas shows. This one is, quite simply, sensational. It is everything theatre is supposed to be: thought-provoking, inspiring, heart-warming and, ultimately, life-affirming. Miss it at your peril.”

Kate Bassett
