Review: THE CREAKERS, Southbank Centre

Based on Tom Fletcher’s best-selling children’s book and adapted by scriptwriter Miranda Larson, The Creakers musical is an escapade which highlights the very real need for sustainability, through a tale about Lucy and the ‘kidderlings’ of Whiffington. The children wake up to find that all of the adults have mysteriously disappeared and the local waste and recycling issues have oddly all but vanished too.

From the moment the lights go up, Lizzie is a full throttle onslaught of female rage. There's heavy guitars, some serious belting, strobing lights, and plenty of fake blood.
