    Critics Reviews

    “At the end of this week, the world’s longest-running show will complete its 65th year in the West End. It is salutary to reflect that when it opened, Winston Churchill was prime minister and there was still rationing.”
    - Evening Standard UK

    “It has passed into the realm of great British institutions, as much a highlight of the tourist trail as the Tower Of London or Madame Tussauds.”
    - Sunday Express

    Very persuasive and enthusiastic performances. No songs. A wonderful theatre -- 100+ years old, quaint, charming and packed with a buzzing audience who helped create a wonderful atmosphere.

    I love that you can buy the book there and they stamp it with the show number. The cast was really great. As usual with Agatha Christie, I did not guess the culprit. This is my view from seat E5 in Dress Circle. It was a great view.

    I'm an unconditional fan of Agatha Christie and I finally got to see La Souricière. The theater is ideally located, it's an iconic place. The actors were perfect, each in their own role. I'm taking the 70th anniversary book with me ☺️

    We had booked tickets in the upper Stalls thinking they had leg room as my partner is 6'4" and when we got there it was very tight and he was clearly uncomfortable. While my partner didn't want to make a fuss, I did say to the usher that we booked specifically for leg room. She went and got the Manager who moved us to much better seats with lots of leg room, given we had just arrived in London that day (we are Australian) it made our trip extra special.

    It was just amazing being at West End seeing one of the longest running Broadway shows in the world. Cute little theater. Remind me of New York City.
