Unforgettable A mesmerising staging of an absolute classic. It’s a dream to be at the theatre and watch such phenomenal recreations of familiar stories.
The cast, music, staging, lighting and atmosphere was pure magic!

Lovely rendition of Narnia story As an older family we enjoyed show a lot. Live musicians c from cast.

Awful staff ruined experience Staff acting like prison guards restricted people arriving 60 seconds after start time and made to wait up to 15 mins before seating yet people needing the toilet could come and go as they pleased. Really poor and ruined our experience

An amazing show. Definitely a must see. So much talent on one stage. Singing, dancing, playing instruments, acting. It has everything. One of the best shows I've seen. Don't miss the chance to see it.

Great concept I really wanted to love it… the musicians being actors was a really good part but the songs quite frankly were terrible & the singing was average… personally I didn’t think it added anything, so much so I left after the 1st half

Marvellous! I am a believer and the gospel message was delivered clearly in a way that people including unbelievers would understand

Great family entertainment Great to see so many children in the audience for a thoroughly entertaining show. The way music and musicians were introduced was brilliant and the whole thing had a great “feel good “ factor surrounding it.

I was disappointed with the set thought it was very basic with drab effects Seating is as uncomfortable cramped in the stalls. Air conditioning needed to be turned up. Performance was good but felt that for the price I paid was expecting a more spectacular production instead very basic props. Aslam puppeteer was excellent. Admittedly I nodded off for 5 mins until my partner nudged me. I would not be looking to watch this show again as I do other shows.

Imaginative Absolutely loved this show. It always amazes me how someone can take a book and transfer it onto the stage and this show is so imaginative.
Sharon, 28 Aug 2022
Very creative show Very good show, which my son and I enjoyed very much. The costumes and puppets were amazing. Quite scary in parts for very young children.
Julie, 13 Aug 2022
Excellent Brilliant version
Andy, 12 Aug 2022
Really enjoyable show! First time ever seeing a show in London! Really enjoyed it! It’s got a dark side to it I would say, not sure it’s for younger audiences say under 6 / 7 could be abit scary in parts. Didn’t take our children but I don’t think my 6 year old would have enjoyed it. But that’s just my opinion. I thought with 2 adults going it might be abit young for us but actually it wasn’t and we both really enjoyed it ! I would recommend it… just not for smaller children I think there are other shows they would prefer !!

Dont waste your time Very disappointing production of one of the all time classic stories. I guess if you are a ten year old you may enjoy it, but anyone older than 14 is going to want a refund. Terrible songs, dancing my dog could do better than, and overall poor production.

Brilliant Brilliant show, small theatre with a great view of the stage . Never had so much leg room in a theatre !! All evacuated before the interval but cast were amazing at getting back into the show and continuing as if nothing had happened . Samantha Womack, fantastic!!

Jermaine, 23 Jul 2022
Relive your childhood Enjoyed the entire performance, it followed original storyline accurately minus a few small details (can’t recall exactly!)
Atmosphere, lighting, music and mood fabulous . Cast were brilliant! Energetic, Funny, convincing, real.
A pleasure to watch. Would recommend to anyone, but especially to those who read the chronicles of Narnia as a child!
