(VOV) -‘Miss Saigon’ has triumphed at Britain’s WhatsOnStage awards, as theatre goers rewarded seasoned shows, spectacle and star power.
It was named best musical and best West End show, took lead acting honours for stars Eva Noblezada and Jon Jon Briones and also netted prizes for supporting actor and actress, direction, choreography and design.

The record haul follows the musical’s return to the West End last year, 25 years after it premiered in London.
“I’ve always known that the public knows best,” said the show’s producer, Sir Cameron Mackintosh.
A tragic Vietnam War love story that famously lands a real helicopter on the stage, ‘Miss Saigon’ ran for a decade in London from 1989. On Broadway, it ran for 4,063 performances until 2000.
The new version opened in May to strong box office and positive reviews.
