The show should have been excellent: a great set design, good choreography, and a talented and hardworking group of 5 actors who played multiple roles and switched effortless between them in the blink of an eye. BUT: I could only hear about 10% of the words. I thought this might be due to my age-related hearing loss, but other people I spoke to with no hearing loss had the same experience. I think the problem was a poor balance between the musical backing and the voices: I could hear most of the words when the actors spoke or sang unaccompanied, but this was only a small portion of the performance time. I was seated in the centre of the upper circle about 5 rows back, which would normally be ok for me. It was very disappointing to pay £47 for a ticket and only be able to get the main gist of the story.
