They tweeted yesterday to say it was Sold Out! Clearly it wasn't. A lot of the tickets will be comped for press too. Big fibbers!

It is no longer searchable on See or KX tickets making me think that no more tickets are available for purchase. Pretty sure thats the definition of sold out, however many tickets were comped previously. If you can’t buy ‘em its sold out!

My point is that they claimed it was Sold Out yesterday, and tickets were available to buy this morning, but whatever.

So many sound issues.
And if you're going to cast someone in a wheelchair in a prominent role, find one that can sing. 'Are You There' was painful.

Is there normally dialogue in this or sang straight through?
So far I’m disappointed. There’s a huge list of trigger warnings, and I was expecting something sexier, sadder, more dramatic, traumatic. I’m bored as f***
Also SO many missed mic cues (is that what you call it? When someone is singing and their mic isn’t turned on in time). Why is this so hard to do, are producers hiring on the cheap or something?

Possibly the worst thing I have ever seen on stage
Blacklist the sound tech from the West End

Wow. Sounds like another poor concert. It seems more often than not these concerts are plagued with sound and quality issues. Who is producing this one? I've seen some mediocre ones, but thought the recent Addams Family and Side Show ones were really good.

I've seen some mediocre ones, but thought the recent Addams Family and Side Show ones were really good. Same producers as Side Show which has made tonight’s show an even bigger disappointment. Side Show was a fantastic night of theatre, this was… not. |

That is a surprise (that's it's the same producer behind Side Show). That was certainly one of the best concerts.

I genuinely am outraged. Absolutely awful, they need to stop producing these concerts considering they just continually have such awful sound issues - to be charging what they charged for these tickets to have produced something of such abysmal standard is an absolute insult to the entire audience (who quite frankly should all be refunded)
Cassidy Janson was a highlight, Claudia Kariuki would have been a highlight too if I could have deciphered a single word they were singing.
Appalling.

Quelle surprise the sound was sh*t - these guys so rarely get it right (Jason Robert Brown was good, and Side Show only had a handful of outright bad moments sound wise, but otherwise the Lambert Jackson ones are usually fairly inaudible) - this does sound like it was particularly bad though.

What I will say is that Laurie Kynaston, who was completely new to me, is a star in the making. He had the best vocals, didn't need to add riffs like some did, abd played it honestly. I will book to see whatever he does next. He would be a fantastic Quasimodo if it ever gets done here.

I loved this show as a teenager and was so excited to finally see it. Technical issues were shocking making it like a panto by the end. I am so disappointed by how poor it was. I noticed quite a few people left in the interval. Lots of people trying to stifle laughs by the end. Feel so sorry for those actors. Direction was shocking also, lots of people on the tube saying it was like a GCSE drama

FOH literally handing out contact cards for the Samaritans at the end Maybe it was just me, maybe it was the sound issues, I didn’t feel that moved by it? Anyone else? Felt so disconnected from the show and didn’t think there was any chemistry between the two |

The sound was awful. Mics not on when they should be and I too had trouble understanding what was being said or sang. Cast did the best they could, but for an introduction to this show - it wasn't a great one
