Charlie M, Daily Info 27/08/2019
"This is most certainly a tech heavy show with some whopping lighting and sound cues and so, again, huge kudos to the sound and lighting team who have to set this up at each venue on the tour...I adored it when I saw it in the West End at The Other Palace and I enjoyed it even more the second... continue reading
