Unfortunately, this production was nowhere near the quality of Webber's usual musicals. The storyline was terrible and the characters had very little development. Additionally, there were far too many characters to keep track of. The music was good and the special effects were great but that was about it.

A really fabulous show. The whole experience was superb. Loved the costumes and songs…… being able to skate and sing wow. Polished and perfect for me. Everyone very welcoming and helpful. It was very busy but toilets worked well plenty of them and really liked the in and out …. that helped relieve the usual traffic that blocks the doorway in the ladies loo Sometimes it was difficult to hear all the words when all singing together but that did not detract from the wonderful experience.

We love this musical and have seen the original version several times in different theatres but this is definitely our favourite so far. The singing and skating are excellent with a particularly memorable performance by "Rusty". The updates work really well and the costumes and lighting are truly spectacular. The Troubadour Theatre is the perfect venue. It is relatively small so everyone is close to the stage. I wouldn't bother with the premium seats which are called "first class carriages" as you'd miss what was going on behind you. We were near the front of the "locomotive" section and had a great view of the whole stage and track. Be aware that the seats near the centre are beside a fence over the entrance aisle. This could partly obscure your view to one side if you are not very tall.

Disappointing good production but lacked the great original story line & music. It’s a great show in its own right but it’s not a patch on the original starlight express. All the right staging acting but lacking in excitement and no starlight train Rustys character does not develop. Scooters ? Not a particularly good addition. Also a haze throughout preventing good visuality.
