9 d. ago The Harder They Come review – electrifying reggae musical is sweet, dandy and catchy as hell

Theatre Royal Stratford East, LondonMatthew Xia directs a consummate adaptation of the 1972 Jamaican thriller, whose irresistible soundtrack is bolstered by new songsScene-setting doesn’t get much better than this.
