Alex added: “One person who made a special appearance on the big night was Paddington Bear, and we must say congratulations to Paddington, because he picked up an amazing nine awards for his musical last night,” with Roman noting that it was “very impressive”.
Paddington The Musical dominated the WhatsOnStage Awards on Sunday night (March 8), winning nine prizes after its triumphant launch in the West End last year.
The show is based on Michael Bond’s original children’s books and the recent film adaptations. It quickly became a hit with theatre fans and received rave reviews from critics after its debut at the Savoy Theatre in November.
The musical’s nine awards are the most for a new production, and equal the joint record previously set by Miss Saigon and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
