Unexpected Knew very little about the story before I came to watch. Absolutely loved it and was enthralled from start to finish. A standing ovation at the end highlighted how fantastic the show was. Downside if I had to find one was sound - vocals needs to be slightly louder.

Outstanding show in every way! Miss Saigon was absolutely outstanding. Captivating from beginning to end. Powerful story sucks you in instantly and leaves you wanting more. The music is varied and upbeat - appealing to all. While applause is directed at the talented performers, let it be known that the lighting and special effects crew are just as deserving of applause as those taking centre stage. Thank you all for putting together such a powerful masterpiece!

Good if you like slightly childish live stories This show was a little tedious and hard to take seriously. Everything was sung no dialogue. It was ok and relatively enjoyable but I expected a bit more. The love story was kind of naff.

take your tissues! We struggled a bit with the sound and understanding the words being sang. There were however some fantastic scenes, but with so much activity going on on the stage, you need to have a good seat with a good view of the whole stage to appreciate it all.
However, all that said, it was a very moving story and I was glad I had tissues handy.

Incredible, powerful, beautiful Absolutely incredible show, I loved it. It was brilliantly choreographed with so many amazing singers compared to most shows where you normally get one or two. The meaning and the story line were portrayed with such feeling and emotion, the set design incredible, some tears shed but some laughter too. Suitable for 16-18+ with the content. A must see! Very clever.

Almost as good as the original! I have watched Miss Saigon when it first came out in London (Leah Salonga). This time i took my mum (as her bday treat) along with my sister and brother. As i have seen the play before - it was a pretty good comparison. Todays production is in a smaller scale, cast are less and props are also less!
However if you u are watching this show for the first time - IT IS WORTH IT!
The existing Kim has a powerful voice that stands out in the group when they are singing (I like that very much!).
The rest of the cast was also good.
But the bar scene is not recommended for families with young children hence not recommended for family viewing!

Amazing - a must see This musical show from start to finish was amazing. The music (serious and comedy aspects) created a good balance throughout. You really felt at one with the characters. The way the set worked with all aspects of the story was fantastic and the sound effects vibrated throughout the whole theatre, making it feel like you were there experiencing it with the actors. Definitely take your Kleenex, there wasn't a dry eye in the house. I wouldn't recommend it for younger children as there are some adult themes that may not be suitable. I wasn't sure what to expect. It was a last minute booking and I am so glad I picked it. Sassy, exciting, authentic, pure brilliance.

Miss Saigon - review by avid theatregoer Took me a while to settle into the story. The cast are talented and the leading lady was exceptional. The lighting was excellent, the sound had a poor start but adjusted positively early in act one. The choreography needs a revamp and a tidy. I wouldn't recommen for very young children.
