Beautiful theatre for an exceptional story and performance! The staging was inventive and creative. The puppeteers were creatively interspersed in the story and their work with the puppets was delightful. One of my favorite theatre experiences ever!

The show was an unforgettable shared experience for me and my 4-year-old son, who is a Totoro fan. The show respected the original story and was faithful to the magical and playful world of the film. The show took all the joy out of its wonderful puppets - in different proportions and in 2 and 3 dimensions. The puppeteering and performing were excellent and the visuals were stunning. The music was delicate, and it supported the world of the show seamlessly. It was worth traveling from another country to see this! I would go see the show again anytime!

Hadn't been to the Gillian Lynne theatre before - the layout was good with only mildly restricted view from our seats (which we knew when booking). The show was brilliant with fantastic puppetry. We were wowed by the stage craft and the performances. We are two adults but I will say it seemed very family friendly with booster cushions being offered to smaller audience members.

We booked this show somewhat spontaneously and ended up the highlight of our weekend, so happy I got to experience Totoro in stage before it wraps in early 2027. The puppetry was masterful and every detail was perfect kawaii, shed many tears of joy

Headout comodissimo per i biglietti del teatro. Bellissima esperienza per adulti e ragazze.. quando si viene a Londra il teatro inglese è assolutamente da fare, forti della loro grande tradizione nell'arte teatrale lo spettacolo è assicurato!!!

Fabulous acting and coreography. Creative ways of bringing the critters to livfe to tell the story in its completeness. I cant add any photos - not allowed to take them in the theatre! It also made more accessible doing it in English!

La mise en scène est magique. L'atmosphère du film est très bien retranscrite et la musique live accompagne parfaitement l'histoire. Le jeu des acteurs et les effets pratiques permettent une immersion totale. Un souvenir inoubliable.
