- Hello Hello you lovely lot!
Today I share with you my review of brand new musical Why am I So Single?
This is probably one of the hardest reviews for me as I went into the show with such high hopes, confident that I would find a new favourite musical only to feel a tad let down with what I watched. I didn't want this review to just be a list of negatives so I hope I have explained all my thoughts and feelings clearly.
I know my opinions on the show will not be shared with everyone so please feel free to disagree in the comments as I am always open to discussion.

Couldn’t agree with this review more. I truly get the sense Marlow and Moss were very very aware of the pressure that came with following up their megahit. I mean what do you do if your debut work could very easily become your career magnum opus?! It becomes a little bit of a mess because they’re trying to shoe-horn so much in. They’re trying to make this work different, but also, keep those core elements that the six audience want and need from them. It’s a clearly very difficult balancing act to achieve. As a millennial, a lot of the humour in this show was very stale. It’s nowhere near as razor sharp as Six.
I am a millennial and have the type of platonic relationship in this musical and I felt the same way about a lot of this. Especially the flatness and the over use of some of the jokes and the fact that it was made out that romantic relationships were the be all and end all. I'm glad it's not just me who was dissapointed
@impproductions11 that's very interesting that even as a millennial there were elements you couldn't quite connect with. I'm actually just so sad bc I was so ready to have a new favourite musical🤣
I think it was a honest genuine review but I still want to see the show I'm curious to see if I will like it
I was suprised by the swearing in the songs ❤
I’ve just watched two 30+mins back to back reviews of this show which are as opposite as can be. But after Micky Jo’s enthusiastic gushing - which peculiarly did not endear me to the show - it was refreshing to hear your counterpoint, I feel they’re tonally more aligned to what I would think if I were to see the show. But I don’t think I will. I’m Gen X so possibly not in the target demographic. Cheers!
@darrenbertram7289 ah interesting. I have yet to have the time to watch Mickys video about it! Isn't it just so interesting how everyone's taste in theatre varies so much. Im glad my review was enjoyable and interesting. If it helps my Gen X parents said it was fun but not fully their thing
Is it worth going to see the songs are so good though what I have heard
