Disappointed from Staines: 20Sep14:
If you like to hear a lot of screeching and seeing not much of a story, then this is the show for you. In our row, we saw one couple leave after 10 minutes, whereas the lady in front (like me) fell asleep for large sections of the performance. Having never seen the film or read the story before, my wife and I have absolutely no idea what was going on! Couldn't understand/hear the lyrics, so any form of narration was useless.

Mrs Wallace: 18Sep14:
Elocution lessons needed for Marti Pellow. Unfortunately, he was narrating so it was really difficult to know what was going on. Confusing.
