The Bodyguard - The Dominion Theatre - London

On 10th August, me and a friend went to go and see The Bodyguard in London. We booked our tickets in the middle of the circle for around £30 each. We decided to see this particular show because of the fact Beverley Knight was starring as Rachel Marron and we both loved seeing her previously in Memphis. This energetic, empowering and emotional musical has been one i have wanting to see for a fair while now so i am very glad i got to see it.

Our seats were reasonably comfortable, the legroom was what would be expected for a £30 seat but it was a great view.

The show itself was very entertaining, an emotional rollercoaster. The show itself is basically a concert/musical fusion with a very heavy storyline about stalking mixed in with Whitney Houston pop songs. Classics like Queen of the Night, How Will I Know, I Have Nothing and I Will Always Love You really bring the show to life and without these Whitney Houston masterpiece's i don't think the show would be even half as successful. Beverley Knight and Ben Richards lead an incredible cast of triple threats. Rachel John as Nicki Marron feels like a casting made in heaven. There was plenty of Comedic moments to keep the 'buzz' flowing round the theatre too.

After the show, we went round to stage door to meet the cast who were lovely and more than willingly to stop to sign Programmes, take pictures and chat.

Overall, I would rate this show 4 Stars.
