Get along to see it if you can!
It’s a show which doesn’t have a weakness.
An irresistible tale of showbiz survival.
The production is never less than bright and breezy, and serves very well to highlight a central performance that is undoubtedly worth going to see.

Not to be missed.

The staging is unobtrusively brilliant, the dance is exhilarating, and the supporting performances...are flawless.
Funny Girl: The Musical is every bit as impressive as you’d expect and a little bit more.
This is an unmissable, memorable and long-overdue revival of a musical theatre classic. Pure class from curtain up to curtain down.
