‘Truly an incredible spectacle to witness’: 42nd Street – Theatre Royal Drury Lane
The fact that 42nd Street first came out in 1933 doesn’t date this wonderful revival of the show. It provides some good old-fashioned singing, dancing and tapping. Lots and LOTS of tapping.

‘An unpleasant reminder of what our industry can be like’: 42nd STREET – West End
