Fantasic show! My best friend and I went to the afternoon performance of Wicked today. The theater is spacious and only has seats in the auditorium (no balconies). The view from the back was good. This gave us a good view of the entire stage. The acting, the music, it was beautiful! We are from the Netherlands, but the English was easy to understand and understand. Only the voice of "robot wizard" could be a bit softer and clearer. This was incomprehensible and very loud. Furthermore, great and also plenty of toilets! Saves long lines.

Ruth, 14 Apr 2024

Helen, 31 Mar 2024
Spectacular show I am so impressed by the show, I have never seen such an amazing play. The acting, singing, dancing, costumes, lighting, everything was so well done that you can’t do anything else but enjoy. It was like watching a live movie just in front of you. Bravo!
Diana, 13 Mar 2024
Fantastic Really great show and helpful and friendly theater staff.
Sherrill, 11 Mar 2024
Powerful The singing, dancing and storyline was great. The lead actors had the most wonderful and powerful voices.
Seats were excellent for the price.
Would highly recommend this show
Amy, 03 Mar 2024
Very touching and spectacular! It was the second time I went to see Wicked in London. I love the story, the songs and how the actors made it so real!
Rafael, 26 Feb 2024
Very loud and difficult/impossible to hear the words of the protagonists. I'm glad I went, but feel the show doesn't match the hype. I won't rush to go back.
Don't go if you feel sopranos screech.
I felt a long away from the stage.
Before the seating was open it was a real crush in the bar area. People were sat on the stairs. Both of these were a health and safety nightmare. Drinks were expensive.
Helen, 16 Feb 2024
Fantastic Just one of the best shows I’ve seen. Wonderful acting and scenery. A truely great story.
As always it’s a shame that there are not enough toilets to accommodate the crowds and that women have to q for 20 minutes down the stairs during the interval.
Anna, 16 Feb 2024
Decent show, but doesn’t compare to Lion King or Phantom Average story line.
Joseph, 13 Feb 2024
A lovely Show! Beautiful music & costumes.
Maneja, 28 Jan 2024
Stunning. Singing was spectacular. Gave me goose bumps
Kathleen, 27 Jan 2024
Strictly for showtunes fans I prefer musicals with more contemporary styles from pop to rock to blues, this one's clearly for lovers of classic showtunes. Not my cup of tea, but I'm sure many would love this kind of a show. The acting was good (though some of the whispery bits were hard to follow), the set was fantastic, so was the lighting and sound quality for the music.
gopikrishnan, 26 Jan 2024
Very enjoyable wonderful singing and acting fantastic lighting and costumes. Very comfortable theatre a bit pricey but that’s to be expected
Marjorie, 26 Jan 2024
Excellent***** definitely a must if in London Right from the start it was engrossing.the power of the performance was top class with leading members raising the roof with the power of their vocals.the set and lighting was wonderful. Would highly recommend to all and family's in particular. Bravo to all involved.
Tony, 25 Jan 2024
Fantastic We loved it!
David, 23 Jan 2024
Fantastic acting and singing The overall show was brilliant as the actors really did a fabulous work of both acting and singing, especially the two female leads. Very good stage set up and everyone did a great job.
The only problem I have is with the seat location and cost - we were in M5- M6 stall seats which happened to be close to the toilets. As a result it was smelling throughout. Furthermore views were restricted, if you are not too talk, then definitely don’t recommend these seats as you will have to struggle for the view. I am really disappointed about the seats as they costed 80£ / person. For the value , I think this was a rip off.
Suman, 21 Jan 2024
Great story well acted I am a Wizard of Oz fan. The pre story of the witches in Wicked gave a good insight.It showed friendship, love and the attration of power and fame .
Julie, 21 Jan 2024
Great musical, but the new cast ruined the show! This was the fourth time that I saw Wicked, and as much as I was full of admiration for the singing skills to tackle some of the hardest songs like Gravity and No Good Deed, by Lucy Jones, Alexia Khadime has heavily disappointed in this role. Her strong growls were overpowering and her acting was at best mediocre (stiff and lacking emotional connection with the character). The duets that she did with Lucy St. Louis sounded like 2 elephants in the room, based on who could sing louder, instead of a pleasant to listen to unison. I heavily regret seeing the cast this time, as I expected more and so did my husband who was thrilled to see it the second time after the first performance, especially to listen to those songs. The show is great, but who selected the cast this time, and why is the question? The only thing I can think of is that since the musical will be leaving London soon, the casting directors just didn't care anymore.
Izabela, 20 Jan 2024
Excellent dhow Everything was great about the show
David, 20 Jan 2024
Magic The show is pure magic. It was a long time I didn’t such a great musical. I would recommend to read the abstract before to fully enjoy the performance.
Congratulations ?
Sophie, 15 Jan 2024
Stunning! The whole show was amazing! The stage, lighting, costumes, dancing, singing and the actors - all were fantastic!
Maria, 14 Jan 2024
10/10 for Style, Minus Several Million for Plot Coherence. Phenomenally good scenery, excellent acting, good singing, dancing, and costumes; an all around top-notch professional production. On the other hand, a single memorable song and a plot that veers all over the place, going nowhere. It would be unfair to give things away, but we get dashes of Harry Potter, Mean Girls, animal rescue, a proto-fascist Wizard, random borrowing from the original, musings on the nature of celebrity, a parade of characters who somehow manage to be both two-dimensional and inconsistent, and a couple of lame attempts at social criticism. After three hours I was as befuddled as the Scarecrow trying to figure out what the storyline was trying to do or be.
Tom, 12 Jan 2024
Fabulous Costumes are fantastic, songs and dancing are amazing. This show will change your whole perception of the story you think you know. The ending was just like a fairytale.
Rachel, 10 Jan 2024
So good Wicked is fantastic. Went in knowing little about it but in love with cast, costumes and story.
Clara, 10 Jan 2024
Geweldig Als je naar Londen jolt moet je een musical gezien hebbven. Dit us een zeer toegankelijk mysical.bmooi verhaal en hulor erin verwerkt.
Enige nadeel, veel te luid. Je loopt ee met momenten gehoorschade op 1ls je je oren niet afschermd.
Daar moeten ze echtviets aan doen.
Caroline, 05 Jan 2024
Musical and Magical It has always been my dream to go to wicked and they did not disappoint, I went with my mom and we had the absolute BEST time and was 100000% worth the money! The actors were fabulous and talented and I can’t wait to see the show again when we return to London!!!
Dominic, 05 Jan 2024
The magic of Oz maintains totally This show is one I have not seen before and this morning I am at a loss to work out what took me SO long? It is a brilloantly staged show with first class performances all around. I would commend it to everyone with any passion for musical theatre, or just for a feel good evening in a wonderful venue with first class acoustics and effects.
Victoria, 05 Jan 2024
A True West End Experience For someone who enjoys the theatre, this show was great to watch. I must confess I saw it 6 years ago and it was as memorable now as it was then. My wife saw it for the first time and had a blast. The show is put together really well and just a great experience overall.
Peter, 02 Jan 2024
Slayyyyyyy Loved the story line, singing, costumes and everything!
Joanne, 28 Dec 2023
Seen better example lion king Ok if deaf and short legs
Alan, 28 Dec 2023
Spellbound!! Went with my wife and two children (17 yr old boy & 14 yr old girl) and we all loved the show. Something I’d been thinking about doing for years and was a little worried my children may not find it that engaging. Needn’t have worried, none of us wanted it to end!
Colin, 23 Dec 2023
Top class show Absolutely spectacular show, one of the best we’ve ever seen. There is not one negative comment to be made, it is a must see show.
Faye, 13 Dec 2023
Fantastic show - but theatres heating too high Great twist to the plot. Weaving in the traditional story characters. Excellent voices. Wonderful performance all round. (Only issue which made the 2nd half very uncomfortable - the heating was on too high … )

Angels, 08 Dec 2023
Powerful vocals This show had extremely talented vocalists. Loved the well known songs. They were very well done. Characters were endearing.
Virginia, 06 Dec 2023
A wonderful experience I'm a tourist and watching a Broadway show was definitely a must on my TO-DO list. I have enjoyed the show.
ZEE, 01 Dec 2023

Donnella, 30 Nov 2023
Amazing Loved the show if I was to come again I would book a few rows back as it was a bit cold so close to the stage
Criana, 25 Nov 2023
Wonderful production Couldn't fault a single thing. The show was amazing. Advize anyone to see it
lee, 22 Nov 2023
Colourful I thought I'd booked seats at the end of the row at an Aisle but there was a barrier.
the map of the Theatre was a bit misleading.
The show however was really good
Jennifer, 17 Nov 2023
75th birthday treat We went as a group of 4 as a treat for my mums 75th birthday. The theatre doors were delayed opening, for reasons that were not explained. This meant getting inside was rushed, with no real time to buy drinks, snacks, souvenirs etc. The performance started abruptly and some people had struggled to take their seats due to the delay. Our biggest criticism was that from our position, it was too loud and yet we couldn't actually 'hear' the words being sung. Our seats in the Dress Circle were almost opposite one of the speaker stacks and this, possibly, caused the sound to be directed straight at us, however with the level of volume and not being able to make out the words it did spoil our experience. Had this not been the case this review would have scored higher. It was shame as these seats gave us a great view!
Paul, 14 Nov 2023
A well done recital Really bad
Beatrice, 12 Nov 2023
Wow! Amazing performance with amazing singing. Actors are super talented. Would not mind watching again.
Charlene, 02 Nov 2023
Absolutely fantastic! This show blew me away, I loved every aspect of it.
The whole production is put together beautifully, with authentic and believable acting from the entire cast. The costumes and stage sets make you feel like you could be in the magical land of Oz, and the lighting and music add such atmosphere and tie it all together.
The leading cast were great to watch, and really had me invested throughout the performance.
I can't wait to see it again soon!
Markus, 02 Nov 2023
A Classic Maybe too Classic. Voices very high. A bit too loud sometimes
Marie Line, 01 Nov 2023
Great Loved it. Though we had a lady behind us who either was talking or singing.
Helen, 31 Oct 2023
Ein Highlight der Reise Musical war sehr gut, in den Ankündigungen stand, dass die Hexe in den Zuschauerraum fliegt, das gab es nicht, war daher etwas enttäuschend.
Ursula, 31 Oct 2023
Pleasantly surprised I thought the story was excellent especially how it tied in with the original story.
As always the only negative is the price of refreshments, sweets and nibbles but the staff were happy and helpful.
There is not much I can offer in the way of advice as it all went very smoothly and the theatre was lovely.
Sarah, 30 Oct 2023
Typical family musical Very good for children.
Elaine, 23 Oct 2023
Wicked spectacle Absolutely fantastic show!
James, 22 Oct 2023
Brilliant show Brilliant performances. The actors playing Alphaba and Glinder had excellent voices and gave perfect performances
Martin, 22 Oct 2023
nice show lovely show and worth watching at least once. fabulous singers. in comparison to other shows on the west end there is very few wow moments
MATTHEW, 18 Oct 2023
Sparkling Performance This performance was full of energy and very strong vocals. There were witty one liners thrown in which gave the audience a chuckle. The interlude was well timed as this was quite a long show.
The theatre itself is well located for transport links trains, buses and underground.

Amazing !!! A must see
Barbara, 13 Oct 2023
BIG Smiles An amazing story of relationships between sisters and friends.
A Heart warming show. I left with a BIG Smile! :)
Kulwant, 04 Oct 2023
Thrilling experience Absolutely fabulous!
Chris, 27 Sep 2023
Excellent storytelling with great performers The vocal abilities of the 2 main role players are exceptional, I had goosebumps. The story itself challenges you to think about how you see things and the assumptions you make. You can pre-order snacks and drinks for intermission and I suggest you do this. Warning-the queues for the ladies room were very long, so go early.
Cindy, 25 Sep 2023
Top afternoon with family at a top show. Great show. Would totally recommend. X
Alexa, 23 Sep 2023

amanda jane, 16 Sep 2023
Amazing show ? I haven't been to the theatre for years so it was a real treat to come watch wicked with my partner whilst we visited london for the weekend! Absolutely loved it, and really enjoyed the story! The only downside which isnt the shows fault at all and i know a few around us may say the same, there were two girls talking really loudly alot of the way through and one had even filmed parts (i heard them watching on their phone after part 1) in the end, 10 minutes before the end two different people went over to them and basically told them to shut up, they got up stormed off were noisy in the back for a few minutes then im presuming were asked to leave! Such a shame people dont know theatre etiquette! But that isnt the shows fault at all, would definitely recommend-fab!
Jenny, 16 Sep 2023
Great Show I thoroughly enjoyed Wicked, the music, the acting and the fantastic colourful outfits -

Really creative- great music Excellent music, wonderful singing, really good dancing and special effects
Loved every minute
Nola, 08 Sep 2023
Amazing! Better than NYC Broadway! This was my first time seeing a London show and I was blown away. The entire cast was phenomenal but I’m convinced Alexia is not from this world. Her talent is otherworldly.
Nina, 08 Sep 2023
Very good Thoroughly enjoyed the show, the costumes were incredible! Music and voices of the actors were amazing.

Simon, 18 Aug 2023
Outstanding Just amazing!!!!!
Leah, 18 Aug 2023
Great Show Chose good seats for the value we could afford, i do think its very unaffordable for many people to pay the prices of shows in London. show was brilliant though, so talented singers/actors. the queue was long on entry and wasn't enough time to purchase drinks etc as we were called to our seats. Great central location and easy to get to by tube.
Diane, 14 Aug 2023
Spectacular show with fabulous special effects Spectacular show with fabulous special effects- the costumes were amazing and the acting was superb. Great theatre and loved the venue and the stage sets. Should very definitely not suitable for children - the special effects would frighten them. Pre-ordering drinks for the interval diesn't really work at this theatre- wetried it and the queue to collect was just t as long as the bar!
Siobhan, 13 Aug 2023
Beautiful costumes, superb singing and acting, such collaborative dances, flawless in every way. The entire performance was brilliant! 5 star rating for sure. I loves the singing! I was in tears! The lighting, effects, dancing, acting and the storyline were all mind blowing.
Emmalene, 10 Aug 2023
Magic This show does not disappoint. It delivers on all levels. I didn't want it to end and I didn't realize it was on for as long as it was. You're eyes are dazzled. The cast was funny, emotional, energetic and sounded incredible. Bravo bravo ???

Deborah, 23 Jul 2023
Great entertainment. Really enjoyed a terrific performance, acting, staging etc were excellent.
Paul, 23 Jul 2023
Decennial Event I watched Wicked in NYC when I was super pregnant and super sleepy after 7pm with my dad and husband. They enjoyed, but I passed out in the seat while my baby jumping in my belly.
Tonight,
My baby was sitting next to me and he enjoyed Wicked while holding his little brother’s hand.
Priceless experience
Amazing songs
Goosebumps with happiness
I felt like I was pregnant again LOL
SeongRyong, 22 Jul 2023
Incredible! Amazing !! The voices of the two stars was absolutely incredible. The actor portraying the “Wicked Witch of the West” was beyond spectacular. Her voice is of the caliber with Whitney Houston or Beyoncé. We were blown away!’
Janele, 22 Jul 2023
A great evening out, with spectacular effects and music. My Ukraine visitors watched the show and loved every minute. Two of them knew very little English, but they were told the story by an interpreter and thoroughly enjoyed the whole spectacle.
