There's a
wonderful comic turn from Martin Johnston as the evil Henry
Potter - Derbyshire Times
I particularly enjoyed the performances of Martin Johnston as
the unpleasant, scheming Henry Potter, and his assistant Ross
Mullan – who break into an amusing song and dance routine at
an unexpected moment. Uxbridge Gazette
The highlight of the show for me was Martin Johnston as Henry
Potter - Evening Echo Southend
Things start to go pear shaped when national financial
circumstances flounder and, more particularly, when a nasty
crippled rival banker, Henry Potter, played with great gusto
by established opera singer Martin Johnston, lends fate a
dirty hand. Southend Times

Mr Krabs'
performance receives due applause from all
…….there were many amazed gasps from children as each actor
appeared onstage in authentic costumes that were incredibly
reminiscent of the animated series. Most notably Mr. Krabs
(Martin Johnston) and his performance of ‘Kerching’,
accompanied by glittering life-size dollar signs dancing and
throwing money in the air, received due applause and cheers
from impressed adults and awestruck kids.
Review: Su-Ann Chow-Seegoolam ng-magazine.com
Martin Johnston as Mr Krabs, owner of the Krusty Krab, gets
the best musical number, with a fantastic Broadway-style
routine about the mighty dollar, entitled Kerching!
Review: Michael Davies Whatsonstage.com - Midlands
So what are the highlights? There's a great moment when Mr
Krabs (Martin Johnston) sings his "Ker-Ching" song,

When...?

the way you would expect of a proud, elderly man who has suffered
a loss".
