The hype round this show, for the last 18+ months, has been the creation of a hologram of Elvis using cutting edge technology.
This has certainly not been delivered. It is a cheap re-hash of the ‘68 comeback special.
Any reputable company would, when they realised they could not deliver what was promised, would have cancelled the show.
Not this bunch off scammers! They decided to treat the fans like fools and carry on.
Don’t waste your money on this show.
The positive reviews are on here because, in breach of TripAdvisors terms and conditions, they have ‘bribed’ people with a chance of winning a holiday.
You’ve been warned.

I really enjoyed the evening
I really enjoyed the evening, I thought it was a very important message and it was great value for money.
I took so much away from it and I was really appreciative of the whole production. I thought it was really insightful and really fun.
The musicians and actors were great, I paid £60 and I can honestly say that was fantastic value for money, you can compare it to go into a football match and it was much cheaper than that.
Ok there wasn’t a hologram but it’s not a perfect world is it, get over yourself.
I couldn’t believe how negative some of the people round me were, I felt a bad atmosphere with … quite frankly racist undertones. I feel ashamed to say this but it was clear to me.
So be open minded, celebrate collaboration and harmony of all races, ignore the sour puss faces and go for it !!!

I thought this was great and really…
I thought this was great and really good value for money. We went with an open mind, which I suggest everyone does, and found it to be very educational in many ways. I’m not quite sure what the people who were disappointed expected. It appears to me those disappointed were a lot of old women upset that Elvis didn’t come on stage and have sex with them. I think a lot of people were also uncomfortable that the influence of black culture on Elvis was emphasised. This is what made him so great and I particularly enjoyed that part of the experience, but I think there are others that didn’t. Thank you to the cast you were fantastic, keep up the good work and ignore the negativity of a certain section of society.

Totally agree with all negative…
Totally agree with all negative reviews. Only put reviews if really good or really bad. Feel liked I’ve been robbed. At the very most this is not worth a penny more than £20.
Drinks & food very expensive as well.
Everything they show you will have seen on the TV clips already.
Please please do not waste your money.

Definitely one to miss!
I honestly don't know where to start with this review. Having read the very mixed but predominantly bad reviews, I tried to simply block out the feedback, and hoped to enjoy the experience for what it was. How very naive!
The concept was poorly presented, the theatrical props were extremely amateurish and while the actors did their best with intermittent microphone/sound issues, they struggled to disguise their own indifference to the whole experience.
The 'after party' fiasco took the experience to a whole new level of disappointment. Albeit the bar was adequately staffed, it was astonishingly difficult to order food and drinks. Once the food arrived, I honestly wished that I hadn't bothered as the food was flavourless and stodgy.
And all of this was on a VIP ticket! There absolutely needs to be a more realistic overview of what this 'experience' actually delivers. From wandering through dimly lit rooms full of so called 'props' to the after party entertainment, this imersive experience was a very long way from impressive.

This was the biggest waste of money I have ever spent. Not sure what the production team are trying to do here, but Elvis deserves better. Don't waste your money see if you can get your money back before you have wasted it.

I'd read the reviews so was expecting…
I'd read the reviews so was expecting something truly dreadful but honestly I had a great time. I really don't understand the terrible reviews at all.
I went with my daughters, we purchased tickets back in January, think we ended up paying around £60 each and I feel I definitely had my moneys worth. We were welcomed as we arrived, Bobs diner
was good, staff really nice and friendly, decent food and drinks to start off the
experience. I read someone complaining about cloakroom charges! Really? Most places charge for this don't they and it was £5 for all 3 bags, hardly daylight robbery!
The story of Sam Bell and Elvis was interesting, the 68 comeback special part I really enjoyed and it looked like everyone around me was too! The actors really do put their hearts and souls into this. The after party was great,a DJ and a good band playing and a good bar, not dreadfully expensive either, we would loved to have stayed there another couple of hours but had to get the train home. Elvis music from start to finish, for an Elvis fan what's not to like.
I have to say I probably wouldn't be so happy if I'd purchased VIP tickets, from what we saw that really wasn't worth it at all, you went in first but honestly that made no difference really and you get a "free" drink or 2 and a glass I believe for £300. I bought a glass, it was £20 it's actually really nice and good quality, we had a couple of drinks each too and some food and including tickets we spent less than £300 between us!
We had a great day, go with an open mind, if you go thinking you'll hate you likely will. Hopefully enjoy it for what it is, a celebration of Elvis. If you love Elvis you will love this.

Disgraceful
A total waste of time and money. Everyone involved from the production team the hopeless actors, the supplementary staff standing around should be ashamed of themselves for being involved in such rubbish. My expectations were low having read the reviews but it was even worse than I anticipated. Save you money - give it a swerve!
