West End – Come From Away & Anything Goes

That’s right today (31st July 2021) was my first West End shows since 2019 and I certainly managed to pick a truly incredible double whammy!

Come From Away a new musical that was just so lovely, heartbreaking and heartwarming all at one.

Anything Goes a Coke Porter musical and therefore a classic was on another level, what an amazing production.
