Legacy reader reviews
The Choir of Man was annoying.
I hated the dialogue explaining who each person was as it didn’t matter a bit. Just pointless filler. Some of the singing was gorgeous and loved the harmonies.
Hated the final encore song. What a bizarre choice to end on a downbeat Irish folk song.
Had so many high energy bangers and then to end on that was baffling.
Stalls L1. Good legroom and view. Only missed the right side wall of the set. Happy to sit here again!
Broadway John.

Apart from the scene on the loo it was rather enjoyable. You just have to bear in mind that it's not a typical musical as there is no plot at all. Okay, sometimes the narrator tells the audience something about the characters but that is not really a plot. But all those boys can sing and some of the versions of the already well-known songs are absolutely beautiful.
**** from my side although I admit that it's this type of show that encourages bad audience behaviour. Especially young women were just shouting and yelling and this was getting on my nerves from time to time.

Stalls row BB1-3. Front row, high stage so constantly looking up. For 'Choir of Man' this was OK, which was why I chose it, but I wouldn’t sit here for a play as I don’t think you’d get a good perspective of the scenes.
You are very close to the action and looking at people’s feet on stage.
On the end of a row, just about OK leg room. Be prepared to catch a few splashes of beer every so often!
