Lazarus: The Complete Book and Lyrics

'David Bowie's parting gift to the world - and what a rare and mesmeric testament this is… it's all unforgettable. I sat rapt throughout'

* Independent *

'Enda Walsh's book is full of longing – for love, for peace, for release from earthly ties – while songs from Bowie's iconic catalogue, an astonishing legacy spanning four decades, are reimagined in a new context whilst somehow retaining the potency they once exerted during the course of a life richly lived. No jukebox musical, this… [the] entire creation is infused with the spirit, the quirkiness, the capriciousness of Bowie, and Walsh could not be more in tune with all of it'

* The Arts Desk *

'Like David Bowie himself, this is a show that defies definition. It's both all and none of a musical, a play, a gig, performance art, philosophical meditation, a fever dream, a collective trip into the unknown... strangely fascinating and fascinatingly strange'

* Broadway World *

'Beautiful... a last transmission from a dying star'

* Time Out *

'Outstanding... full of wild energy, magical effects and overwhelming music'

* WhatsOnStage *

'Fascinating to watch... [a] spectacular study of a pained outsider's search for peace'

* Guardian *

'Blazingly original... complex, layered and riveting... sensational'

* The Stage *

'Captivating, tense, and emotional… shows like this don't come along very often'

* Radio Times *

'Gripping… [a] strangely poetic piece of music theatre… there’s nothing at all conventional about this. It is festive. Riotous. Dionysian. Wonderful'

'Ice-bolts of ecstasy shoot like novas through the fabulous muddle and murk of Lazarus, the great-sounding, great-looking and mind-numbing new musical built around songs by David Bowie'

* New York Times *

'Wild, fantastical, eye-popping. A surrealistic tour de force'

* Rolling Sto
