fantastic....great night out.. great songs highly recomended

Wow! What a night and what a musical. Well done to the cast on such an energetic performance and thanks to The REP for bringing Our House to Birmingham. We had an utterly brilliant time.

Absolutely fantastic!!

EVen for a regular theatre goer, this was one of the best shows i have ever seen

I went to see it during the previews. Had a really good time, going to see it again when it comes up north to Sunderland.

A fantastic Show. 1982 Revisited... before most of the cast were born! Superb entertainment. Highly recomended. Stars in the making.

We had a fab meal at the REP then went on to the theatre. It was a fantastic night, the cast had so much energy.
I would recommend it to anyone young or old.

Wonderful to see so much energy from a very talented young cast - they really gave it their all and we thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

Thank you to all the cast and crew for what was an absolutely fantastic evening. I have not stopped singing since.

I went to watch this show in London and was thrilled it has now been taken on tour.

I took my children along with family and friends (19 of us), everybody walked out with big smiles on their faces, and most wanting to go back and see it again!

This really is a show for everybody, so don't miss it.

A final note to the cast: Well Done and Thank You

What amazing energy, stamina, enthusiasm and comittment from the cast. I've been so "blown away" by this production that I've seen it three times and still am loving it. I am enthralled at the tireless energy throughout..truly a cast and production to be proud of. Well done to everyone and a big cheer for the crew too.

We first saw it on one of the preview nights, and agreed that we'd got to see it again. I've just booked up for a third time. The energy and enthusiasm of the cast, the choreography, the music, the "how did they do that" of the quick-changes (especially that one behind the umbrellas!), the wonderful individual performances...BRAVO! We just didn't want it to end! What a talented young cast! Well done to you all!

Hi well i went to Birmingham to see the show it was fab.The guy that played Joe's dad was outstanding the song he sung at the end was brill will go again .

What a fantastic show. We took our children (although some adult comedy fortunately went straight over their heads!) and we've all been singing Madness ever since. The youngest has even been doing some of the dance moves. The cast were fantastic and received a well deserved standing ovation. If you haven't seen it, go. If you don't you're mad!

Loved the show. I thought the cast did brilliantly, they showed a lot of energy and clearly showed that they enjoyed what they were doing.
Well done guys. I wish them the best of luck with future performances, keep up the good work :)

Fabulous show, loved it, have been twice so far and am planning to go again. Lively funny entertaining brilliant, cant recommend it too highly, has all the elements of a really successful tour. Great to see Steve Brookstein again, thought he did the part more than justice. Long may the show run.

I thought it was absolutely brilliant!! There was so much energy on that stage - the cast must be the fittest bunch of people ever! Cast was great, storyline was great, and of course the songs weren't bad either!

Our House!! what a spectacle, (and before I came along musicals were not my cup of tea. We are coming again with the children next week. Splendid performances all round and when listening to the "after dark" and hearing that so many of the key performers were just out of drama school, it made it even more a performance you don't want to miss. If only all musicals were as good as this !!!

Best wishes for the tour may it run and run.

Wow!What a show, it was well worth the journey from North Wales, the cast was brilliant, so much energy, the dancing was fantastic, it made us quite emotional in parts, Best wishes to all involved and give yourselves a pat on the back, well done.

WOW! AMAZING! I WENT FOR THE SECOND TIME TONIGHT AND I'D GO EVERY NIGHT IF I COULD. MY MOM, AUNTIE AND GRANDMA BUMPED INTO CHRIS CARSWELL AND SAM MACKAY AND THEY SIGNED AUTOGRAPHS FOR ME. THEY ARE REALLY COOL GUYS. I WANT TO WORK HARD IN DRAMA SO THAT I CAN PLAY PARTS LIKE THEM. HOW DO THEY DANCE SO ENERGETICALLY AND THEN SOUND SO CALM WHEN THEY SPEAK OR SING, OFTEN AT THE SAME TIME TOO? MY HEROES. THE REP DESERVES A PAT ON THE BACK FOR BRINGING THIS SHOW TO TOWN.

Saw the show in preview and thought it was 95% even at that stage. Saw it again last night and my goodness at least 1000%. Such talent, energy and feel-good entertainment. The whole cast is superb but in particular Chris Carswell, Jenny Fitzpatrick and Sophia Nomvete stood out for me, Miria Parvin's solo was spine-tingling and Steve Brookstein was a revelation, I think this is the first of many musical theatre performances for him. He has great stage presence and I was really impressed, to the extent I am coming back again next week. The show seems to be growing in stature all the time. Congratulations to the whole cast and crew for the hard work they have so obviously put in to make this show the success it is. The audience was standing and shouting and deservedly so. Plus, what a finale!!

Fantastic show, great dancing, great singing, great music, highly recommeded for all ages.

What a show !! Came out on such a high. They were fantastic and where did Jo get all his energy from changing those outfits so quick?? The whole family loved it. Want to go again.

Well- I saw the show on Thursday and I'm still smiling now... talk about feel good factor- and I'm not even a Madness fan- you don't have to be- everything about it is just sooo infectious, so slick and polished and entertaining from the get go.
Better than the original West End production IMO, especially Steve Brookstein as Dad (his first ever stage role? NEVER!) Chris Carswell as young lead, Joe(his first ever professional role? NEVER!) Joe's girlfriend- divine voice,and Gwyneth Strong as mum.
Something for everyone- can't wait to go again.
Thank you all for such a memorable evening.

A brilliant show! Lively, entertaining yet at the same time thought provoking. The cast were fantastic, choreography superb, dancing marvellous, singing wonderful-help we've run out of praise. A must see show!!!!!!

I came to see our house on the 12th june with my school and I have to say it was the best performance I have ever seen. I told my parents how fantastic it was and my dad decided to book some tickets for the rest of the family. So we are coming to see it. And it will be the second time for me. I'm really looking forward to it because it was just ... wow. Welldone to all the cast because you really are all amazingly fantastic performers.

Came to see Our House on Saturday with my family and we loved every minute. The energy of the cast was amazing.

This was our first visit to Birmingham Rep and would like to say how friendly the staff are and what a lovely theatre, we can't wait to visit again. Thank you

What a musical! We were smiling from the moment the show started (unless we were crying when it become very emotional)until the curtain finally fell.

The energy of the cast was outstanding, truly inspirational and the scenes changes became part of the show itself and were timed to perfection.

We have been recommending it to everyone and hope to go again this week before it finishes.

Absolutely brilliant - well done! PLEASE come again.

The show is great - the effects,costumes,props, and it is definately worthy of the West End. Best show I have seen in a long long time!!!!

Loved it, going again! The actors are fab and it was definately worth going! Recommended to anybody.

Loved the show real feel-good factor. Wasn't quite sure what to expect but lively, energetic fast moving show. The main characters were brilliant; so well acted.
Well done to all concerned. Would appeal to all ages.

I saw this last night.
I'm only young and I thought this was amazing and hilarious.
Hope to see them again soon.
They will get big one day.

Hiya guys. came to see the show yesterday (17th)..

WOW..what can i say!?

The energy, thriving tempos and amazing visual elements!

An absolutely stunning performance. Thoroughly enjoyed the the plot and subplots hidden in the depths of the fantastic characterisations from the actors- credit to the writer and director for getting the ideas across. A very emotional story bought together by superb actors, producers and designers...structurally similar to Blood Brothers (which I loved!). Definately a must see!

Special mention to Chris and Maria who (along with all the cast) are without doubt very talented. The on stage presence between you two was very believable. You guys belong on stage!! Maria you have a beautiful voice.... Credit also to the designers and orchestra who complimented the actors beyond expectations.

Wishing you all the very best for your future stage careers and congratulations to all on such an amazing, (and what was to me).. a very memorable performance - you should be proud. "It must be love" of musicals that brings you guys to stage..hope to see you again.

Hope to be somewhere like you guys in the future..have to say performances like this make people realise just what theatre's about.

Have lots of fun and good luck with the tour. Take Care, Chris

WOW Great show!! A must see for anyone who likes music or musicals! really did match up to the london show. Will see it in Stoke now and then see where else I can go! Can I also say that the Rep theatre is a lovely theatre and have done a great job!! Thanks To Everyone!!!!

What a great night, have not stopped talking about it. Have not stopped playing my Madness CD since I got back. Hope it comes back soon.

Absolutely love it, fantastic young cast giving it everything - I doff my cap to you all - brilliant show! I'm off to dig out my old Madness records...

A great way to end the season. Lively, colourful, pacy, visually imaginative, clever, complex and very effective choreography, exuberant playing by an enthusiastic cast.

Appealed successfully to all age groups.

Absolutely brilliant! Took our soon to be 17 year old son and 13 year old daughter and they thought that the dancing and singing was fantastic. Who would have thought that two teenagers would discover the music of Madness in this way! Congratulations to everyone for such a wonderful performance - where do they get thier energy from!

Travelled all the way from Bristol to see the show - especially Steve - well what can we say - it was FANTASIC - the cast were all brill and the dancing and singing out of this world.
We took our neighbour along to see it was she loved the show - we all thought it was one of the best we have ever seen. The band were also spectactuer.
The REP is lovely and the seats were very comfortable.

BEST PERFORMANCE I'VE EVER SEEN !!
Actors/Actresses Were Brilliant !!
I Was So Glad I Went !!
You Would Be Mad To Miss It !!
Wish It Was Out On Film !!
I'd Watch It Again And Again !!
It's Really Brilliant !!
Words Can't Describe !!
xx

I went to go and see Our House with my school and it was AMAZING! Everyone loved the show, and Chris Carswell (Joe) Is GORGEOUS! Absolutely Loved It!! xxx

This is highly amazing. If you havent seen it yet, then go and see it, it's amazing.love it xxxxxxxx

saw the show last time and it blew my mind!the cast gave it their all and are to be highly commended.have told every one at work to get to the box office 4 tickets.outstanding.

Our House was phenomenal! The whole cast were excellent & the songs were amazingly performed! ^^ Miria Parvin looked so different from when I last saw her as Pearl in Starlight Express, & she did a great job, as did Steve Brookstein, Joe & Joe's mum! But my fave was Sam Mackay as Reecey! ^^ He was excellent onstage & when we met him at the stage door, he was SO lovely, he put all his bags down to sign my program & pose for a photo! I saw this in Manchester & I'm gonna try & see it at Southhampton - please let it come to Woking! ^^
