Saw Cry Baby @arcolatheatre.bsky.social - absolutely brilliant, great fun, based on the John Waters film, a kind of Grease on hallucinogenics. Go see it!

Absolutely adored Cry-Baby at @arcolatheatre.bsky.social. From Off-Broadway and this medium-scale first UK production is seriously terrific. It’s 1950s barbershop vs rock’n’roll, performed with glee and hilariously memorable songs. They rhyme squeaky-cleanness with penis and I’m still grinning. Go!

London!!! I am SO GLAD that I went to see the Cry Baby musical at the @arcolatheatre.bsky.social. It was my first time and the show was really fabulous. So much talent! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

5 stars for this super show at @arcolatheatre.bsky.social where every performance is 'a smash'. loureviews.blog/2025/03/29/t...

Cry Baby The Musical - absolutely superb show at @arcolatheatre.bsky.social Easily better than the film - every John Waters fan should see it. It deserves to be a massive hit. It brought me such joy after a very trying week.
