This is the second time i have seen this show was looking forward to seeing it on Broadway,a great performance but was not as good as London. I think the staging was different.

This was a fantastic show spoilt by the few individuals that for some reason find it impossible to sit and watch a show without chatting all the way through it???/ WHY?...also staff tried very hard to stop idiots who refuse to stop taking pictures and filming the performance..why when they catch them dont they throw them out?..One woman was told 3 times to stop filming every time staff walked away she just continued.
All this is very distracting for people who want to enjoy the show.
