Reviews
“My kids, aged 6 and 8, were transfixed and adored sitting in the inflatable dinghys to watch the play. With clever ear-worm songs and hugely imaginative staging, the play was an absolute delight. ” TripAdvisor review
““Creation’s Swallows and Amazons is the perfect show; fun, family-friendly, and full of excitement.”.” Daily Info
“This is an essential summer show. Don’t miss out. ★★★★★” The Oxford Times
“Superb entertainment.” Newbury Weekly News
“t was amazing how scenes from the books, which I hadn’t read for 40+ years, came back to life and I remembered the thrill of reading them as if it was yesterday. A great experience for those who love the books and those who don’t know them at all.” Audience member on TripAdvisor
