Love Actually? The Unauthorized Musical Parody

See it if you want to see a light comedy musical.

Don't see it if you want to see a serious heavy play.

See it if you enjoy parodies and are a fan of the movie.

Don't see it if you want serious theatre rather than light-hearted entertainment.

Also This show is pretty much exactly what I expected from the way it was marketed, so I am pleased with that. It's clear that the writers enjoyed the movie, so while it is of course made fun of in this parody it's don't with affection. Both the movie itself and the actors were gently mocked (Harry Potter fans will likely get a big kick out of how Alan Rickman's character is treated!)... Read more Read less

See it if You've seen the movie, enjoy light funny send ups, don't expect serious production from a parody

Don't see it if If you've never seen Love Actually (or if you don't have a sense of humour as to how problematic the movie is),or if you want a serious show

Also Its a parody - so it's tongue in cheek, funny, snarky towards the source material (rightfully so in my mind) and a real workout for the performers who juggle upwards of three characters each. If you haven't seen the movie you will be lost and won't enjoy it (cue my left seat mates who kept saying "Wait, what are they talking about?") but if you have seen it and consider it a completely tone deaf movie you will laugh a lot (cue my right seat mates who were laughing as hard as I was).
It's not groundbreaking theatre, and it's probably about 15 minutes too long, but it zips along and makes of everyone. Kudos to the costume designer who had probably $10 and made it stretch far with clever underdressing for fast changes.
It's a fun evening, and the Off Off Broadway priced drinks that you can take inside the theatre make it merrier.... Read more Read less

See it if you are a fan of the movie and love poking fun at ridiculous tropes.

Don't see it if you haven't seen the movie. It will make little to no sense.

See it if Anything even remotely to do with "Love, Actually" makes you happy.

Don't see it if If you're looking for a really clever parody of the movie. This was very broad and hectic.

Also My favorite moment - Laura Linney has a song about "why am I in this movie?" otherwise not a great send-up. But the performers have fabulous voices.... Read more Read less

Also So much fun! I saw the Friends parody and came in with low expectations, but I thought this one was so much better! Just about all the jokes landed and the songs were very creative. Loved all the actors: each played multiple roles perfectly with wigs making it easy to tell each character apart (especially loved the actress playing Laura Linney/Emma Thompson!). To me, the best part was having every Alan Rickman scene star Professor Snape instead.

It's a small theater, so it's impossible to have a bad seat. Know beforehand that it is a 90-minute no intermission show. Overall, highly recommend to any fan of the movie!... Read more Read less
