Theatre review: Tony [The Tony Blair Rock Opera], Park Theatre

I had misgivings about how they were going to make Blair into a comic figure given that he is best remembered by many for taking the UK into the Iraq war, but Hill and Brown successfully find the balance between being as stupid as a panto and as seriously poiltical as Brecht or Dario Fo.

Review: Tony! [The Tony Blair Rock Opera], Park Theatre

Classic Harry Hill - funny, surreal and clever.

Harry Hill's musical takes bite out of Blair

Clearly this won't be to everyone's taste - least of all Tony's - and many who voted for him may also find it hard to stomach. But this terrific show is all the better for it.

Tony! [The Tony Blair Rock Opera] review

The cast works hard to make this misguided musical work, but it remains little more than an aimless old fashioned sketch show.

Tony! (The Tony Blair Rock Opera) review

Harry Hill puts the party into politics.

Tony! The Tony Blair Rock Opera review

It's a dodgy dossier of a show which depicts New Labour's leader as the emptiest of empty suits. It is, however, very witty and tuneful too. It is, however, very witty and tuneful too. Hill, who wrote the book, has never been to everyone's taste - the little boy inside him is always desperate to make burping noises - but if you're a fan of his brand of comedy you'll warm to this venture.

Tony! (The Tony Blair Rock Opera) review

Begins promisingly, then outstays its welcome - ring any bells?

Dominic Cavendish, The Telegraph, 9th June 2022

Tony! (The Tony Blair Rock Opera) review

There's not much satirical sophistication on show in this oddly-timed musical effort.
