For a previous production

"...this musical encompasses the very best of Whitney Houston's songbook, alongside a cleverly written storyline... Although there were some opening night glitches with some slightly laboured set changes, it didn't take away the audience’s enjoyment. Along with superb sound and perfectly-time lighting cues, this show is credit to the design and production team, as well as those who work behind the scenes.
