The booking of the tickets was so simple (even for me ) . The speed with which we entered the theatre was lovely no rushing just calm . The merchandising was first class. The seats we had were excellent giving a full view of tge stage and the surrounding areas.
Extraordinary, only downside: it's a shame there's no translation via headphones for foreigners or French people like myself and my contemporaries.

Headout easy to use for tickets even my daughter was amazed I'd booked them all by myself. Easy to get to by tube. Fun and stunning show. The only negative was the seats seem to be slightly tilted forward so we both got back ache, luckily the show took our mind off of that. Otherwise all brilliant.
Perfect ambiance and performances, Dom Simpson is extraordinary. This is my second time coming this show and I could watch it over and over again with pleasure
Simple and straightforward to book. Tickets were easily accessible , download and print etc. As I live in Spain, but was booking to see a show in London this was important. No problems with either payment or receipt for payment. I loved the show, and will be booking again soon for my son and his girlfriend. Thank you
