Hairspray Theatre Review

A customer from Superbreak who saw Hairspray wrote this review.

After seeing the show first in New York I thought that this wouldn't compare and I was really surprised to find it was BETTER than in New York. Michael Ball was fantastic and his co star Ian Talbot also. They worked really well together and in parts were hilarious. The show was really uplifting and would go back time and time again to see it.

We really enjoyed it. It was my first ever musical! It's such a beautiful venue and the scenery and staging and everything were really impressive. I'm also amazed that anyone can sing when they're jumping about as much as those guys were!

Hairspray Theatre Review

A customer who saw Hairspray wrote this review.

The show is quite incredible, I'm always amazed at the ingenuity of the set designers, lighting, and most of all the talent of the performers (they don't have to go on the X Factor to have their talents recognised...). I'm so sorry that we didn't get a chance to talk, or meet the stars (did Michael Ball deliberately put on that weight?), as we had to rush to catch our trains.

We thoroughly enjoyed the performance. It was a very colourful and fast moving show and we came away with a really good 'feel good' factor. All the cast were excellent and will certainly recommend it to all our friends.

Hairspray Theatre Review

A customer who saw Hairspray wrote this review.

I thought the show was very good, Michael Ball was hilarious, and the show was full of energy and got better as it went on. The only downside was that some of the characters sang so loudly and put on such a strong accent, you couldn't make out the words that they were singing!! I wasn't able to meet the cast afterwards as I had to catch a train home, and it was the last train.
