This show is mind blowingly awesome. It puts a smile on your face the whole show through and you'll want to watch over and over again. Going to the west end will always guarantee a magical experience (pun not intended) but this really is in a league of it's own. The script is extremely clever, funny and highly entertaining.

It tells the untold story of the witches of Oz and goes on a journey with them as they go from enemies to friends. It starts with them at university and then as their individual paths take them to different places we see the struggles and scarifies that they make. The way that this connects to the wizard of Oz is ingenious.

I think it goes without saying that the singing and acting is of top quality. I get goose-pimps every time they sing it's that good! The songs are a variety of ballads and catchy up beat songs. All sang with much emotion and feeling. These actors and actresses are really at the top of their game. You really can't experience this feeling watching TV it really is something about sitting in that theatre and watching it on stage. I don't think i can do it justice through this review but if you get the chance to go to London this is definitely worth going to see.

It's witty, creative, imaginative and incredible to watch them. The set and costumes are so detailed the whole experience is one you will remember for a long time to come. This really is a show for the whole family. Also if you're a student and you have student i.d. you can turn up on the day and get the best available seats for £25. Tickets go on sale after 10am and the show starts at 7.30pm with a matinee every wednesday. It's on at the Victoria Apollo theatre.

Summary: A really amazing family show. A must see.
