“Triumphant…what an ebullient end to a glorious season.” (Evening Standard)

★★★★★ “Gloriously succulent and deliciously sinister; exuberantly excessive, and as thrillingly, dangerously seductive as a beribboned bouquet of triffids.” (The Times)

★★★★★ “Inventive sets, wild costumes and a predatory drag-queen flower: what more do you want?” (The Financial Times)

★★★★★ “Watch the joyous (and fabulous) wonders of Vicky Vox grow and grow into a night at the theatre you won’t forget in a long time!” (Gay Times)

★★★★★ “Spectacular…Marc Antolin is a delight; Jemima Rooper is glorious; Matt Willis is tremendous. A blooming joyous experience no-one should miss.” (Express Online)

★★★★★ “The mother of reinvention you should beg, steal, borrow or even kill to see.” (Attitude)

★★★★★ “An unqualified triumph. Do not miss it.” (WhatsOnStage)
