Perfection, Streamlined, Honest
This intimate theatre was perfect for this perfect comedian. His writing and
presentation was flawless.. He reflects an honesty of our human species which
quickly disarms the hearts of the audience. I felt like I’d just had a heart to heart with “Uncle Jamesâ€, who’d humorously disclosed his personal feelings about growing up. It takes great skill to cleverly and clearly communicate private insights of one’s own journey through life, and most certainly courage. James Acaster does it all. He is an extremely talented storyteller for
any age group. His ability to use such effective body language and his facial expressions are so entertaining, his anecdotes immediately engage his listeners. He needed absolutely nothing else but himself on stage except the simple black background. No distractions. Good decision. He was that good. Comfortable, intimate seating allowed the audience to fully enjoy his
show. This classy comedian is a joy to see in person! Perfect evening! ... Read more

So Much Fun!
The show was fantastic, entertaining and so much fun! The narrator and the children did an amazing job.
We did have the unpleasant experience of a very rude usher and I wish we had reported him before we left but the show itself was well worth going! ... Read more

WONDERFUL
The show is amazing, better than the TV Live version or the movie. I can understand why this show was nominated for a Tony. Everything from the acting, singing to the dancing was flawless. The cast is incredible but I have to give a special shoutout to the children in this show. I was highly entertained and only wish we could see it again. ... Read more
