Praise for Half Cut Theatre's Previous Productions
'They’re in terrific form in this sparky, funny, beautifully acted, 80 minute open air version'
****
Much Ado About Nothing
Susan Elkin gives Much Ado About Nothing 4 stars.
'The gulling scene... is the funniest I’ve ever seen it – I shall never look at a strip of bunting in quite the same way again.'
'Ingeniously abridged... gloriously hedonistic'
****
Twelfth Night
Susan Elkin gives Twelfth Night 4 stars.
'In a production full of versatility and energetic talent, James Camp is outstanding as a deliciously effete, wimpish Sir Andrew Aguecheek in a ridiculously OTT red silk jacket. He then morphs, frequently and convincingly, into Malvolio whose pained grimace and tortured West Midlands accent is a comic delight.'
A 'brilliantly buoyant production.'
Treasure Island
​
Lucy Jollow, Daily Info
​
'Half Cut theatre certainly knows how to entertain family audiences. And this show, complete with strong story telling, versatile acting, sea shanty-type songs and a wackily witty take on Cha Cha Slide is a fine example of it.'

'GLITTERINGLY ENTERTAINING... DELIVERS EXACTLY WHAT IT SAYS ON THE TIN!'
*****
Susan Elkin gives A Midsummer Night's Dream: The Hour 5 stars. 'Best of all was the number of children in the audience. One girl near me, maybe 10, laughed until she rattled and there were two little boys at the front, perhaps 7 and 5, who were utterly transfixed. In good hands Shakespeare works.'
'ROYALLY ENTERTAINED BY THE CONSIDERABLE TALENTS OF HALF CUT THEATRE'
Julie Petrucci, Editor of 'Combinations' praises 'The Canterbury Tales at Christmas' and 'the retelling of some of Chaucer's classic, timeless and formative stories, complete with songs, poetry and hilarity'
