The Messiah
The Messiah
Three towering talents play a cast of thousands in this new comedy of Biblical proportions by the Olivier Award-winning writer of the West End hit The 39 Steps.
A travelling theatre troupe of two actors and an opera singer arrive by camel in the ancient city of London to masterfully enact the greatest story ever told.
Join the absurdly talented Maurice Rose (Hugh Dennis), the alarmingly unpredictable Ronald Bream RAC (John Marquez), and the distinguished diva Mrs Doreen Small (Lesley Garrett), in a hilarious Christmas comedy that conjures up the sublime, the ridiculous and the truly angelic.
The Messiah promises to be the funniest and most magical Nativity you will ever see.

All three actors came across as really enjoying their performances and gave great energy to the show. A very funny and entertaining evening.

Loved it. It was a pantomime and a nativity rolled into one.

Really disappointing people were walking out after the first half . Guess it was a a marmite event but not for me .

Sadly disappointing. We loved 39 steps by Patrick Barlow and expected something similar. Unfortunately, this was nowhere near it. It had some humour but not enough, it started slowly and failed to pick up the pace. Not sure why Lesley Garrett was in it, seemed contrived. Liked the theatre though so shall return to see something else.

Appealed to all our family 13-54. Great timing between Marquez and Dennis and a clever script.

A wonderful way to get into the Christmas mood - all the actors are favourites of mine so it was a treble whammy - love the genre - it was great. Lovely little theatre - my first visit.

This was a great show. I became addicted to watching Doc Martin on Acorn back home in the states and so I wanted to see the show since John Marquez, who stars in Doc Martin, was part of the cast. It was a hilarious show and a really fun way to spend the evening. I give it two thumbs up and highly recommend it.

We loved The Messiah - fantastic laugh-out-loud entertainment. Hugh Dennis is a favourite of ours, but John Marques and Lesley Garrett were equally good. And, we hadn't been to The Other Palace before - it's a wonderful venue.
