"it's intermission of Spirited Away at the London Coliseum (@SpiritedLDN) and it's such a beautiful production – the way they've used puppetry, set design and costuming to bring such an otherworldly story to life is so fun and filled with childlike wonder."

"It’s hard to describe @SpiritedLDN in the context of theatre. It felt more like an immersion where every movement & small moment was mastered with such precision that I just felt lucky to experience the inhabitants of this world.
Unmissable"

"I don't get out as much as I'd like but being a MASSIVE FAN of Hayao Miyazaki going to see @totoro_show recently and tonight seeing @SpiritedLDN just blows my tiny mind. Amazing performances all round from the cast to the puppeteers and the orchestra."

"I went to watch @SpiritedLDN last night, and wow. It exceeded my expectations. The whole show from the costume, the staging, the orchestra, the attention to every little detail in the anime, it was truly captured in the stage adaptation. Would highly recommended to watch"
