Goldilocks and the Three Bears
Jack and the Beanstalk
"[Schwertsik's] colourful, rhythmically pungent interpretations delivered wit and originality."
The Herald
"A series of beautifully crafted dances."
The Scotsman
"A taste of live music and drama guaranteed to dispel gloomy sentiments."
TES
"Insistent rhythms, repeating string figures, often in a folkish mode, and a percussion line-up that included washboard, all made for visceral excitement."
Nick Kimberly
"Charming score falls between Prokofievs Peter and the Wolf and John Williamss Star Wars. The flavour is childlike but heroic."
Rick Jones, Evening Standard
Snow White
"A rich, colourful atmospheric and often downright alarming mixture of symphonic and Caribbean music, and even a touch of rave to complete the confection."
David Lister, Independent
The Minpins
"Imaginative and heartwarming."
John Allison, The Times
"The orchestra, under the brilliant direction
of Peter Ash, and inspired by this extraordinary
work, gave a splendid performance."
St Petersburg Evening Gazette
Press
Red Riding Hood
"Dahl understood what made children tick, so I reckon he would have approved of this stunning adaptation of his Little Red Riding Hood... Unmissable!"
Daily Mail
"This lyrical and witty music.... gave the day's broadcasts a touch of appealing originality that deserved boasting about."
Robert Maycock, The Independent
"An earthy and wickedly funny story for all ages. But this enchanting version is definitely not for the over sentimental.... The choreography, music and costume designs are simply stunning."
Andrew Preston, The Daily Express
"Using a combination of balletic choreography and animatronic techniques, director Donald Sturrock has made a beautiful adaptation of Dahl's wickedly witty version of the familiar tale."
The Observer
"Danny DeVito's voiceover strikes just the right balance between cuddly humour and wickedness.. the animal masks are hugely expressive. Should appeal just as much to adults as to kids."
Time Out
"A superb puppet and animatronic adaptation of Dahl's macabre alternative version of this familiar tale."
The Guardian
"Bursting with wit, fantasy and imagination..."
