What the press said - Woking
Various
The heat is on in Woking now that Miss Saigon has landed at the New Victoria Theatre.
Eagle FM
"Finally - The West End's landed in Woking - the largest, most stirring and emotionally charged musical the New Vic's ever staged"
Woking News & Mail
‘Miss Saigon richly deserved the standing ovations it received’
’The show was a feast of faultless singing, eye-popping dance routines, scantily clad strippers, lecherous GIs, atmospheric sound effects and stunning visual effects. ‘
’The production's biggest success - ingenious stagecraft - how the New Victoria's stage was made to seem so much bigger than it really was by the use of a carefully constructed set that could be wheeled around to shift the audience's perspective’
’Valdez was the star of the show, expertly and humorously portraying the desperate avarice of his character’
’This massive production is showing at the New Vic for an unusually but justifiably long run of five weeks and is not to be missed.’
BBC Southern Counties
