Review Highlights
'Offering an insight into the struggle between choosing profitable classics over unprofitable but progressive theatre works, Wood's script cleverly arranges several discordant voices into a singular chorus of questions and concerns...treated the audience to poignant moments… stirring monologues …
…hilarious and utterly convincing.'

A Hit and Miss Christmas
‘When you think Christmas production, you think pantomime or perhaps some Dickens. Well, this was neither… but also both. The journey to the final staging of the Christmas play is funny, sometimes poignant, and thoroughly thought-provoking, encouraging the audience to reflect on their relationship with the holiday season …light and shade being drawn in equal measure… a delight to behold, offering a wonder around every corner…’

Except there’s a new artistic director in town with new ideas. And Dickens has been done every decade in living memory. The soul of the company is up for grabs as the battle wages between tried and true vs daring and new.
