Press Reviews
"A magical musical show with lots more than a touch of mystery, a spice of terror and lots of happy tunes to send the audience home happy…children love it."
— Evening Herald
"This interpretation of Browning’s famous poem has the joy of invention as, with wit, song and dance, the haunting strains of the pipe adopt a hypnotic quality."
— Express & Echo
"Wood has retained the darker undercurrents of the original, which gives the piece more depth and solidity than many ‘Christmas Shows’."
— Event South West
