Must see, Hilarious, Great staging, Entertaining

See it if you like a classic show (without a serious storyline) full of great dancing and humour. Great cast. Great songs by Cole Porter

Don't see it if you're into modern shows or good storylines.

Clever lyrics, gorgeous ballads, Stemp doesn't have enuf 2 do, Dull, silly book

See it if u think Porter's score, beautifically sung, is enuf. Stefanie Block sings especially well.

Don't see it if u can't stand the stupid book. Charlie Stemp is a dynamite dancer but doesn't have enough to do.

Strong leads and ensemble, Catchy repetitive tunes, Fun narrative, A musical within a musical, Classic musical

See it if you like revitalised classics. Turned a Shakespearean titan on its head with vibrant rhythms invigorating dance numbers & bold comedy.
