Madonna is currently on the first leg of her Rebel Heart World Tour and the reviews have been coming in thick and fast.
The tour is Madonna’s first since 2012’s MDNA tour and so far the tour has been a huge hit with the critics and fans. The setlist is a mixture of songs from the Queen of Pop’s Rebel Heart album and classics from her extensive back catalogue.
The Hollywood Reporter said the tour is ‘A two-hour spectacle of new sounds and refreshed throwbacks that left even the most repeated ticketholder of the singer surprised and fulfilled’ whilst VH1 said, ‘The nearly two-hour show was a larger-than-life display of cutting-edge pop showmanship, filled to the brim with zesty costumes, intricate choreography, and a militant, rigid precision that felt other-worldly’
The show’s opening night in Montreal was equally well received with Montreal Gazette saying, ‘Consisting of four loosely thematic sections broken up by costume changes, with almost every song benefiting from its own tailor-made staging and with a small army of dancers gracefully executing intense choreography, the show hit all the marks.’
Madonna brings the Rebel Heart tour to the UK in December when she will play dates in London, Manchester, Glasgow and Birmingham in the run up to Christmas.
