| | What's New | Closed 4th September 2005 Cast includes Jason Donovan as 'Caractacus Potts' You can tell from the moment the audience starts clapping along with the main theme of the overture that this one is going to be a winner. And so it proves to be, with ballet choreography from Gillian Lynne, evermore spectacular sets by Antony Ward |
Theatre Reviews | In the hands of the cast it remains deliciously clever without growing cloying," The Financial Times, adding that even having seen it before, it is hard not to gasp in wonder when the full-size car sails out over the front stalls.
Noble's production is the best he has done in years. The result is a musical that has that quality of ecstasy one always looks for in the genre but rarely finds with such Rolls-Royce production values, this old banger can't help but spread a little West End happiness.
The Guardian
At a cool £6.2million, it is the most expensive musical ever staged. Fortunately, like the magic car that takes to the skies, this one will fly and fly.
Enchantment guaranteed for children; adults certainly won't regret coming along for the magic ride.
