The better choice is The Prince of Egypt. Although mixed reviews from posters on theatreboard.co.uk
Definitely students want to see something new for a change. Wicked has been playing both in N.Y. and London over 17 years and Mousetrap over 50. Why travel over there to see a show currently in N.Y.
Mousetrap is another story and the last time I saw it , the house was 25% filled. I believe the owners of the play bought the theatre years ago, so it can play another 50 years.

Good points. Also, note that the show is in previews until opening night on Feb 25. The formal reviews will be posted after.

I'm going through a tour company and am kind of at their mercy for what I can get tickets for. None of these would be at the top of my list, but I am going with what I can get. In all honesty, as far as what's going to appeal to these students, there isn't much playing there that isn't also here.

& JULIET at Shaftesbury thea. If available is a hit.
Your right about the current situation on the West End with these N.Y. musicals in full force.

A couple of great numbers can't save this terribly cheesy, ugly, cruise ship musical. It is terrible.

It has been called a cruise ship musical on theatreboard.co.uk ; like I said mixed but for young students it could be a good discussion to get going.
