    Director's Thoughts

    Tuesday, 25 November 2008

    Went to catch up with the show in Malvern last week and to lead an education event. Each time I visit, the company are further enthralled with each other which is great to see – they’ve really bonded as an ensemble, which gives me a warm feeling as the person who brought them all together! And even better, I feel they’ve gone from strength to strength on stage, too. Their close bond helps this, as does that fact that they are proud of the work we did in the rehearsal room and have been absolutely committed to keeping it true to our choices and fresh for each new audience. It’s a good place to be.  (Kate Saxon - Director)
