The best musicial shows in town

A.Glad!

Glad! tells the story of a teenage girl whose dreams of becoming a famous musician come true with the help of some special （and amusing） friends. The costumes and songs are amazing, and although it's fiction, it has the feel of a real-life story. It's so far one week only, on a temporary stage in the football stadium.

B.Mary Wright

The two well-known lead actors in this 16th-century drama are surprisingly good dancers, and the music created quite a scary atmosphere. The clothes by top designer Jean-Luc Filbert are historically accurate and look absolutely wonderful.

C.The Amazing Mr Mason

This unusual musical is based on a famous story writing over 400 years ago. The hero falls in love with a princess who's forced to move to another country. There's quite a lot of speaking for a musical, but the ending's a surprising pleasure.

D.The End of Summer

You've probably read the novel which this musical comedy tacks its story from, but you won't recognise the songs, as they were specially written for the show. Several songwriters were needed, due to the wide variety of music the producers wanted. The stars, who you'll probably recognise from TV, are fantastic.

E.Keeping Time

Keeping time is based on the real-life story of the popular group Marcellous, and includes this best work. We see how having members from three different continents allowed them to create songs using music from each place. Unusually, there's ballet in this show, but it goes surprisingly well with their music.

F. No Exit

With its use of film and advanced technology to make it seem like the characters appear in two places at once, this spectacular musical starts off as an old-fashioned ghost story but quickly turns into a highly entertaining romantic comedy. The fact that the show is performed in an old factory building only adds to the enjoyment.

G.Tiger Prince

The Tiger Prince leaves his jungle home and comes to the city in this fabulous musical. The story isn't particularly original but the computer-controlled light show goes perfectly with the amazing dance routines to make this a must-sea show.

H.The Final Whistle

If you're tired of serious dramas and dull love stories, why not give this laugh-a-minute show a try? The true story of basketball player Andy Hammond is cleverly told. Despite being advertised as a musical show, it actually has very few songs. You'll love all the brilliant jokes and entertaining conversations.
