“… a beacon for how small scale touring theatre should be done. Professional and highly talented performers, a clear understanding of their text and their audience and a totally original approach to a text.”
Craig Harris, Oldham Theatre Workshop, Oldham

“The performance was highly professional and with excellent Brechtian reference points – worth every penny.”
Andrew Rogers, Ralph Thoresby High School, Leeds

“Splendid’s reworking of Animal Farm is a thoughtful, humorous, full throttle piece of Brechtian theatre which has the audience enthralled from the outset. Boxer, Napoleon, Snowball and  Squeeler are portrayed using only company’s unerring ability to use tone, posture and facial expressions to incredible effect, whilst twisting Orwell’s satire to poke fun at today’s world leaders.  The simplicity of the set enhances the actor’s physical presence on stage; using only a table, a curtain and a video screen, Orwell’s Animal Farm is dragged in to the 21st Century using news footage, multi media animation, and a child’s toy farmyard.”
Joe Littlewood the Co-ordinator at The Arts Centre, Chesterfield College, Sheffield Rd, Chesterfield

“It was gold-dust.”
Guy Levesley, Repton School, Derbyshire

“Splendid Productions have created a fast-paced, energetic romp of a show in this highly physical, musical adaptation of George Orwell’s Animal Farm. The cast of three throw themselves with vigour into a host of characters and draws smart parallels between the world of the animals and our modern world, using media imagery. Innovative, stylish, funny, thought provoking. “
Jess Hemmings, Samuel Whitbread School, Bedfordshire

“It was beyond our expectations. The students were captivated by the performance describing it as awesome – praise indeed.”

“Best TIE in the market! You’re brilliant.”
Phil Gascoyne, Brookfield School, Chesterfield

“As a teacher this has been the most inspiring and interesting thing about the play. It has given them the language and understanding of a style of theatre that is hard to grasp or even appreciate from books and even study (although I do my best to bring it to life we are always constrained by simply giving examples. Here they experienced it for themselves)… The feedback from all was that they thought it was an excellent piece of theatre. Thank you.”
Emma Bradley , Thomas Rotherham College

“High quality work. Many thanks for an excellent day.”
Sara Howells, Windsor Boys’ School
