The Fabulist London Reviews and Tickets
Show-Score Member Reviews (7)
See it if I liked the mix of comedy & opera. How close to the stage.
Don't see it if There was nothing I didn’t like about the show.
See it if You like opera, a simple romance plot and Shakespeare (vibes not writing), beautiful composition.
Don't see it if Bad direction is not your thing. It felt like the actors were moving for not reason. Some songs felt misplaced and unnecessary.
See it if You are a friend or relative of the cast
Don't see it if You like to see a professional show
See it if don’t. Honestly this was horribly directed. I’ve never felt such second hand embarrassment for a cast wandering so aimlessly on stage
Don't see it if You want to have an enjoyable time.
See it if you enjoy accessible light opera with a focus on character development for romance magic & some 'crazy' in between.
Don't see it if you have no desire to see light opera.
See it if you want a light introduction into that type of theatre
Don't see it if you prefer musicals and plays. This needs to go back to the drawing board.
See it if You like a small theater musical with simple staging.
Don't see it if You are not a fan of opera singing style.
