Yet another exceptional production by this team. I laughed throughout the brilliant overture and the whole thing sparkled. And Emmalina, superb. My mother warned me about women like you, but I never met any until now

Ring Out Ye Bells! What a glorious, funny wee show. Taking a traditional favourite show and giving it a modern twist complete with hen do and stag night antics, soaring vocals, great performances and a fully colour coordinated cast - this is truly a gem! Miss it at your peril.

Very clever, original production, particularly for aficionados of G&S who will recognise references to other shows in the specially created overture.
Still very enjoyable for those who are not as familiar with other G&S works (me included) as the contemporary references - and use of modern technology - provide additional amusement to the typically ludicrous plot.
A very good performance: well worth seeing. Don't be afraid to laugh!

Wow! Loved this show. It was a fabulous combination of traditional and delightfully sung and acted G&S numbers with a clever modern take on the plot including hilarious social media obsessions. I loved the nightclub dancing scene and also the blackout with mini phone lights and colours. Rather brilliant and so engaging.
I was that drawn in to the action I found myself gutted when it was suddenly over (Trial by Jury is a much shorter G&S show than average). I could’ve stayed for plenty more!

There was so much going on on the stage in a fast moving show which was a fresh take on this G & S gem. Not unexpectedly the singing was excellent with cameo performances in abundance
I enjoyed it so much that I’ve bought a ticket for the final performance on Sunday!

This show is an absolute gem! Short and sweet yet jam packed full of truly memorable performances. The production presents a modern twist on a classic comic opera that is incredibly clever without being patronising. Every performer is strong and utilised perfectly on stage with some of the vocal key points literally giving me happy chills! If you are up for some light hearted fun but delivered in a production that has been put together with a lot of love and care then I would highly recommend this show.

A great production and a fabulously funny show with beautiful vocals. The modern twists are brilliant and highly entertaining. Definitely worth going to see....even if you aren't a G&S fan!
