A wonder to see, Romantic, Absorbing, Tranquil, Enchanting

See it if Want to get away from the flashy, theatrical West End Shows we have all become accustomed to. This is simplicity at its best. Beautiful.

Don't see it if Want a large scale flashy West End production. Don’t appreciate talented musicians who do not need actors to perform to their music.

Soft, Short, Musical, Enchanting, Beautiful

See it if One hour of impossibly silky music. Like floating on a cloud.

Don't see it if Just the music. No plot or no big ta-da musical twists. It's an appreciation evening with just the pit playing..

Romantic, Profound, Masterful, Exquisite, Enchanting

See it if You enjoy beautiful music brought to life by strings and would enjoy some of the greatest musical songs of all time in this way.

Don't see it if You're looking for a storyline based show. This is a presentation of a mix of musical songs played by a strong quartet. It is an hour long.

Romantic, Enchanting

See it if you want to see some excellent musicians play through some enchanting numbers in a unique setting.

Don't see it if you can't deal with sitting on a pew for an hour, the only place I've ever been that's less comfortable than the London Coliseum.

Lost in Theatreland (UK)
April 28th, 2023

An hour is definitely not enough, and I could have sat there for hours. The world-class musicians, who are internationally successful and can be heard on iconic soundtracks such as Downton Abbey and The Matrix are stealing the spotlight in their own show. I wanted to close my eyes but also not miss any moment in the fantastic atmosphere of the Actors’ Church.
