“Unfortunately for Unfortunate, it has its funny moments, but they tend to get lost within the show, which has lengthened its runtime...I did not see the shorter versions but can imagine that the power ballads and jokes were much more effective, as the show does not need as much exposition and storytelling as it has in its current version.”

“...a fully-fledged, coherent musical, both enchanting and biliously funny.”

“With witty writing and fun direction, there is much to love about this show which provides a great alternative to pantomime this season, while still retaining elements of that style...Perhaps not one to bring the kids to unfortunately but this filthy, fun and fabulous show is perfect for all of us big kids.”

“Blessed with stronger production values and a larger cast, 'Ursula’s' story really takes flight...This show has undergone many changes over the last few years, all to the better – and that only goes to prove the old adage that good musicals are not written – they are re-written.”

“ ‘Unfortunate’ is one of the funniest musicals we’ve ever seen. It is is outrageous, unapologetic and absolutely hilarious.”

“So great is the desire to satirise everything that possibly could be satirised, and to produce as many one-liners as can be possibly produced, that towards the end of the show the narrative begins to collapse under the weight of its own twists. But this remains a hugely funny, fresh and engaging production”

“The show is packed with one-liners and satire aimed at the audience... But it seems like half of those jokes are sex-related... Nothing wrong with sexual jokes, but one can only handle so many before craving for something new.”
