Robert Miller: “Even in these days of sophisticated film animation and special effects, these theatres still have a special place in many cultures and no doubt people will be able to see the traditional characters for many more years. Although some of us think of these objects as children’s entertainment, they were – and often still are – used to tell serious stories to adult audiences”.

Mike Smith: “the way they see the dance is based on the classical understanding of plasticity mixed with gymnastics, acrobatics, folk choreography, drama pantomime…”

John Norman: “There isn’t a single spare seat in the house and elegant music lovers are packed in the hall, listening attentively. As for the Evgeny Kissin piano recital, whatever one’s assessment of his sensitivity in Schumann or Beethoven, his technique and physical strength at the keyboard are beyond question.”

Olga Gromova: “The performance is almost too perfect – resembling a polished masterpiece rather than a slice of real life.”

Martha Herbert: “It was a spectacular hit, a warm wonderful and welcoming show, full of great songs. I gasped, laughed and cried.”
