 | Absolutely Superb. Saw this on 19th June in Wimbledon. Blew me away. The cast are super talented, the story was enchanting and brought me to an era which is part of my Jamaican heritage. Could watch this again and again and not get bored. Loved it. A must to watch - Nadia | 01 Jul 10 |
| Saw this show last Friday night - it was brilliant. The performers were excellent. The songs and the music were great. Recognition must go to the on stage band who really carried the production. This show deserves a longer run. What about a tour? Best new musical in years - if you're in London you must take the opportunity to see it. - Jonathan Morrison | 04 Sep 08 |
| This show is SUPERB! Saw it while marooned in London for the night.Top cast, talented performers, great songs. Bought two more tickets for the following week to take my girlfriend. She loved it too! Word has it it's closing early so GO SEE IT NOW!!! - Tom Perry | 12 Aug 08 |
| Saw it last night when I was marooned in London with nothing planned. Ended the night dancing and singing at the end of one the best shows in town. Fantastic cast - I think the lead was new or the understudy - who are some of the best singers around. Go see this!!!! - Tom | 01 Aug 08 |
| Excellent show with a strong cast. A truly electric musical experience. A standout performance by the lead and the band were fantastic. - Lee | 01 Aug 08 |
| Wonderful show-real feelgood factor and not one even remotely mediocre voice. And to top it all Jimmy Cliff himself mad a surprise appearance at the end. Don't miss it-it's a great night out...teenagers will love it too...and the audience was a great cultural mix of people not afraid to enjoy themselves. - Nikki Jones | 24 Jun 08 |
| I went to see the Harder They Come at The Playhouse Theatre and I thought it was absoloutly amazing. I've seen quite a few west end shows and this one really did stand out as something with a new flavour in the west end. I thought the lead Rolan Bell pulls off a great performance as Ivan and the cast as a whole were fantastic. I hope it has a very long run. Andy. - Andy Shaw | 16 Jun 08 |
| I couldn't follow some of the patois, but it didn't matter. The story is gripping, the energy infectious and the music to die for. Wonderful! - Lani | 13 Jun 08 |
