Brighton Christmas Show Slammed as Worst Ever
17 Dec, 2025
Summary
- Audience members called the Christmas show the worst production they'd seen.
- Many attendees left the show due to poor performance quality.
- Viewers are seeking refunds for the disappointing 'Wicked Wizard of Oz' performance.

Attendees of a Christmas show at the Brighton Centre have voiced extreme dissatisfaction, with many labelling the 'Wicked Wizard of Oz: A Cirque Spectacular' as the worst production they have witnessed recently. The show, which was advertised as a blend of cirque magic and classic tale, left many audience members disillusioned, prompting some to leave before the performance concluded.
Disappointed viewers described the show as amateurish and laughable, with specific complaints about a performer's numerous failed tumbles and a lack of clear direction during the performance. Some attendees felt the show was a misrepresentation of what was advertised, particularly noting issues with lighting and an injured acrobat. These experiences led to more than half of the audience departing during the interval.
The dissatisfaction has extended beyond the venue, with audience members sharing their frustrations online and on review sites. Many are seeking full refunds for their tickets, expressing feelings of being conned by the promotion of the show. World's Greatest Productions, the company behind the show, has been approached for comment regarding the audience's negative feedback.
