The lead actor who played Christopher brought this story to life and made a sometimes overtense scene still engaging. This production did exactly that and more! Thought provoking at every level, the decision to perform the story successfully for so long on a Westend Stage is a triumph for humanity. There is no glitzy, razzamatazz, no music, no dancing just an honest and brave story of a modern family coping in society.
Brilliant performances from the cast mean your attention is fully engaged. I always say you know when you see a quality script come to life when technical angles are driven invisibly.
The whole stage unfolds using a technical mastery which I can totally applaud, with lighting and sound in my view creating the depth to the writing in such a way you only become more immersed in the story. A directive masterpiece! My only reservation to audiences would be that the language scripted is in an adult form and may make audience goers with younger children feel uneasy, but that aside a modern story should have an honest presentation and it definitely delivers that!
Highly experiential, felt the pain and fears of not only the child but also the parents and their earnest struggle to bridge the gap in understanding. Ingenious portrayal of asperges as well as sensational technical performance! Genius lighting design! Brilliant acting! Sensational narrative! A must see for all, moderately family friendly baring some explitives and some emotional scenes. Just a genuinly brilliant show! Great story and flawless performance. While smiling at the idiosyncracies of cognitive challenges, we get a really honest and accurate portrait of what it takes to make a family work under any circumstance.
Highly recommended.
A brilliant frank use of life at the extreme and how colourful language adds value to the play. A great show for all ages, and an absolute must for teachers to understand autism. Great production - acting and technology were particularly impressive. It wasnt what we expected funny at all but we enjoyed it very much. It was very realistic, heavy and brilliant.
It opens your eyes and heart to Christopher's condition. The staging was amaZing! Great theatre and staff too: Everyone seemed very impressed but I had some reservations myself - I felt rather manipulated cute puppy - perlease! It was a little 'stagey' and the story was unconvincing. Great acting by the star of the show, but not entirely sold on the show overall. I enjoyed the show enormously. It was actually hot in the theater so I must confess I fell asleep in the first half. However I was with the actors every second of the second act.
Having just negotiated the tube by myself for the first time, I can certainly identify with the main character. Amazing show even if you haven't read the book it's one of the best shows. Whilst it was a production through teamwork, the talented Christopher made the show entertaining. I loved the show. Go for the lower stalls seats rather than the grand circle. Second time seeing this show.
Even better as I was sitting close to the front and could appreciate the detail. Delighted by unexpected Q and A session after the performance.
Thoroughly enjoyed and would enthusiastically see again. The actors were superb and the production was unlike any other. A true all round accomplishment for the stage. The show was very interesting, but the first half was a bit slow. The actors should have mics as it is hard to hear up in the upper circle, especially when the person sitting next to you coughs the whole way through it.

The boy who plays the main role was excellent. It was a really good show, and really well done with few props. I was impressed by how they managed to communicate it through the mind of an autistic person, in a way that was really easy to understand. Well acted and superbly portrayed view of a world we often tend to overlook. Incredible and original staging and a brilliantly well conveyed message.
I felt the very intense and very relevant story line was over-played by extravagant staging in trying to make it a west end hit. Unfortunately also, one of the leads, the teacher, had a night off with very poor diction. An excellent production featuring a simple but complex set. The actors really got the message across of how people with autistic tendancies feel in various situations. A very good show, comical in parts but also with a degree of pathos throughout.
Great theatre with super performances form all- especially lead role. It was very true to autistic people and demonstrated how difficult it can be to understand and manage such people, but also how difficult life can be for those who suffer from autism. I really couldn't imagine how the play would measure up to the book which was excellent.
I was not disappointed. It captured the mood and message of the book to perfection. Not to be missed! I would recommend this play to everyone. Brilliant acting, Story , coreography, stage design.
Thought provoking, funny , sad and poignant. Great play with such original direction, props, decor really impressed and utterly entertained! An intriguing dynamic of family, sadness, laughter and a random story not knowing where it will go. The main actor was incredible. Excellent play, well acted, good special effects. Bad language, but in context. We thought the subject might be distressing but were completely captivated by the story, which was brilliantly acted.
The production is really excellent, the set appears simple but is technically complex and very clever. This is London theatre at its best and should not be missed. We loved this show. The age range of our group was 19 to 71 and we all thought it was excellent. The special effects are outstanding and we were very pleased to receive an upgrade from the Grand circle to the stalls. Lovely, friendly theatre too! We would recommend this show really highly. Highly original, lead actor a tour de force, clever production, compelling viewing.
Clever production with wonderfully inventive and effective use of a technical set. Good, thought provoking story of a young intelligent boy with Aspergers Syndrome. Up there with the best of the non musical productions in Town. Best show I have seen in many years. Great story, staging, technicals, acting. I greatly enjoyed this show.
It was a very unusual story, and took awhile to really understand the main character. But once you had a handle on it, the way it portrayed autism symptoms was amazing, with sounds getting louder and crazier, and feeling overwhelmed at times just like the lead character. Great show! Go see it. Its funny and endearing, but also a learning experience. Provided food for thought in seeing the world through Christopher's eyes. And how challenging coping in the world day to day is. A great visual and audio presentation of what it must be like for a teenager with aspergers.
