★★★★★ “A perfectly realised new British musical. A lovely, lovely show” Evening Standard

​

★★★★★ "Townsend’s creation wishes at the beginning of his first diary that “when I am famous and my diary is discovered, people will understand the torment of being a 13¾ year old undiscovered intellectual”. With so much to entertain those of us who were Adrian’s age at the time of publication, and those who are his age now, it’s safe to say that Adrian Mole is undiscovered no more. And with this marvellous musical version doing the character such justice, he’s unlikely to be forgotten any time soon." Musical Theatre Review
