Review: POP OFF, MICHELANGELO!, Underbelly Boulevard Soho
by Katie Kirkpatrick - May 24, 2025

#Pop Off, Michelangelo! might just be the gayest show in London right now. And that’s saying a lot. But this high camp new musical, overflowing with pop culture references, has to be seen to be believed. The show transports us to the Renaissance – no, not Beyonce’s hit album, the other one. When best friends Mike and Leo come out to each other, their main concern is that God might not be the biggest fan of gays. So what can they do about it? Talk to the Pope of course!
