FOR TWO WEEKS ONLY
The latest sensation on the theatrical block. The audience shrieked as cannonballs from sinking Spanish ships whizzed over the stalls and the children were hooked
****
The Times
A shocking success!
Darlington Times
An amazing show with real stories that made you happy that we do not live in Victorian times!
South Wales Echo
A history lesson all the children seeing it will never forget. Great storytelling with unexpected brilliant touches. A spectacular show
South Wales Argus
A broad, funny and surprisingly hard-hitting entertainment. The sheer novelty of BOGGLEVISION adds immeasurably to youthful excitement and makes this show something very special indeed!
The Stage
This production is a history lesson so totally absorbing that my children talked about it for days afterwards!
Theatre-wales.co.uk
Both shows are incredibly lively fun and genuinely educational. I loved it, the wildly enthusiastic school-age audience loved it, and you'd surely love it too!
