The Reviews Hub: ★★★★★ “Here You Come Again is camp, knowingly tongue-in-cheek, and very funny. It’s also remarkably poignant and joyously uplifting. Whether you’re a fan of Dolly’s music or not, you can’t help coming out of the show a little bit wiser, a lot happier, and with a tune on your lips. What more could you want?”
Fairy Powered Productions: ★★★★★ “show full of comedy, pathos, Dolly’s wonderful songs and a heartwarming ending with a stupendous finale to finish it off. What more could anyone want of a theatre visit.”
WhatsOnStage: ★★★★ “A showcase of Dolly’s impressive catalogue. Equal parts camp and heartfelt, Here You Come Again is a delightful theatrical experience that leaves you smiling long after the final curtain.”
