Epic, Great singing, Entertaining, Enchanting, Ambitious

See it if you want excellent staging and a show stopping act one finale, to hear some very popular musical theatre songs, to know what the buzz is!

Don’t see it if I felt that it was a bit tired and not a very cohesive plot. Maybe I came in with too high of expectations.

Must see, Epic, Great staging, Great singing, Delightful

See it if you want to see the untold story of the witches of oz. This a great show for all the family and a must see for anyone visiting London.
