What Visitors Say
A great compact theatre in Wembley Park minutes from the station. I've been here before to see the theatre production of Newsies and recently came back to visit to see Starlight Express. What amazes me is the way they are able to adapt the stage setting in a compact space. Starlight Express was truly unique given the basis of the production is done on roller-skates and involves ramps/track so its very interactive and high energy. I was sat in the Locomotive section (the wider seated area heading face on) - Row R and it was a great view because I could see everything unobscured and the fact the rows are tiered means the view is not obstructed. This theatre is really good as no matter where you sit, you have a good view. The theatre is very easy to find. Once you come out of Wembley Park station, head straight down the steps under the underpass towards Wembley Stadium, at the traffic lights you turn right and the theatre is a few yards down and entrance is on your right. Plenty of toilets and very clean. Well-maintained. You can buy refreshments and merchandise.
Starlight Express completely exceeded my expectations. The setting, costumes, music, and choreography are all outstanding, and the roller skating is an incredible highlight—I genuinely can’t imagine how the performers manage such demanding choreography on roller skates. It was far more fun and meaningful than I expected. The venue itself really deserves special mention. The seating is very good and comfortable, unlike many older theatres, with clear sightlines that make it easy to enjoy every moment of the show. The theatre’s open layout and lack of space limitations allow for a huge, immersive stage design that fully surrounds you and brings the production to life in a way traditional theatres simply can’t. I previously watched Newsies here as well, and that show also benefited hugely from the excellent spacing and stage flexibility—this venue consistently delivers an outstanding viewing experience. Great value for money and a fantastic seat too. Watch it before 3 May—the London closing date has just been announced! Highly recommend going to see it.
Omg, what a wonderful place. The whole theatre is based around the show with the theme starting as soon as you walk in. The stage is incredible giving you a feeling you are part of the show. The show is amazing, so much action and the performances were spot on. Probably my favourite show I've seen for years. We had great seats on the side looking over the track which i recommend.
Me and mom travelled from West Midlands via coach long journey but absolutely worth it. The venue is fab, lovely setting. Lovely bar and ice cream staff. Shame we didnt see more of Wembley area, will do next time I visit. Lovely restaurant inside, very chilled with great service and very friendly. We missed Starlight Express first time around so looked forward to it. We would travel by train next time as get there more chilled although coach service was great. The show venue all built around the show was incredible, lighting etc. The performances amazing, so easy to follow the story. The little girl starring dont know how she did it tbh! Never forget the skating, show or songs. So memorable. Well worth it!
We often go to something magical for Christmas and this year we decided to head to this show!! We were in the middle of the action and sometimes I thought the cast were going to end up on my lap!! The set was brilliantly laid out, there was a tech fault (well sorted) and the team kept the show on the rails. The story was great and cast very interactive. All well done and it will soon be time for Hydrogen!!
