LONDON TIDE: National Theatre
'setting, staging and universally excellent cast... win out over the lengthy script'
'as a demonstration of how to handle a vast and rambling story with aplomb, this is a surprisingly and entertainingly satisfying'

London Tide at National Theatre is so good! I was a bit uggghh when I saw the running time but I was completely spellbound throughout.

London Tide National Theatre strikes particularly hard for anyone who has London seeped under their skin, the love-hate dynamic laid bare through Dickens and PJ Harvey & Ben Power. Best line belongs to Mr Boffin who reveals what we all secretly know 'London is best when walking.'

Finally got round to seeing London Tide tonight and it was so good! Such a clever use of the stage and lighting bars, rising and falling like waves throughout the songs. I’ve never seen anything like it, it looks amazing! And the songs were great too! National Theatre

I saw London Tide at National Theatre last night. Really great adaptation of my fave Dickens (of those I’ve read, natch). Some really super ways of staging the Thames. also v cool to see it at a theatre right next to the same lickle stream through my village.

Saw @nationaltheatre. Top casting by Bryony Jarvis-Taylor including Ami Tredrea Ellie-May Sheridan Jake Wood Jamael Westman 💚 #BLM Tom Mothersdale Crystal Condie Bella MacLean. Bunny Christie’s design is extraordinarily exciting, creating the ebb & flow of the Thames & its dark secrets

...saw it last night and really enjoyed it...Our Mutual Friend captured so well...it's a long book but the essence was there...it's not a musical as such but characters inner feelings are expressed through songs...excellent acting from all!

It’s divided the critics but I found this a wonderfully evocative piece. It is, after all, a play with songs not a musical. The staging is extraordinary. The ensemble terrific - and unusually for Dickens the women are everything ⁦National Theatre⁩ theguardian.com/stage/2024/apr…

Good play i thought - National Theatre This reviewer got the point & feel if the PJ Harvey songs, which many critics didn’t. Bella Maclean(pictured ) was magnificent timeout.com/london/theatre…

High as a 🪁 after LONDON TIDE National Theatre. This PJ Harvey fan was in raptures. Music, staging, adaptation, one of the best ensembles I’ve ever seen… all sublimely earthy and gut-punching. What a wonder.
