“Pops with wit and invention.”
The Stage
“Impossible not to warm to its puppyish appeal.”
The Times
“First-rate characterisation and some wonderfully absurd storytelling…Eastern Angles have always specialised in genre spoofs – poking fun at Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Hammer Horror and sci-fi B movies, now it’s clear they can have fun with comedy classics as well.”
East Anglian Daily Times
“There is comedy in this production, packed in every line, original and smile inducing. The audience were charmed by the actors, playing multiple parts in clever and unique ways. A great alternative to the seasonal panto.”
Ipswich Town and Waterfront
“This energetic, engaging play will have you smiling and laughing from the moment the actors tread the boards and will constantly capture your attention.”
Grapevine Magazine
“A warming feel-good tipple.”
