A fantastic modern spin on one of Shakespeare’s most iconic plays

A triumphant gem of a production! A classic period piece that effortlessly bridges the original era and the modern day.

A very enjoyable piece that is definitely worth the watch. Could have benefitted from being a bit more ambitious with the staging and adaptation of the source stories.

Perhaps those more into absurdist theatre would enjoy these shorts more, but for us it just didn't work.

Gizmo Love proves that screenwriting is a dangerous thing. It is literally fraught with blood, sweat and tears.

An original plotline, but not a gripping piece of drama. Missing a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’.

Our Verdict: As a cultural event this show is enjoyable and while the plays are ok, they was hard to critique as they are scripted read-throughs. However, the voice acting is very strong ...
