"The Subject was Roses" was enjoyed immensely by a friend and myself. From those first few minutes, when dad (spots Timmy's coat) walks over to the chair, we of the audience were immersed in the story. The play is understandably a "gem" and the cast are brilliant. In the space of the intermission, during the second act,Timmy transitions from boy to adult, dad develops compassion and understanding, and mom becomes accepting of a less-than-perfect yet perhaps even fuller life. It is a wonderful production, and we plan to recommend it to our friends.

We had so much fun at the "Birthday Suite" performance that we were still chuckling when we arrived home! The actors are spot on, and the astute direction assured they delivered their witty dialogue exchanges with great comic timing. The clever set decoration allowed us in the audience to keep an eye on everything, but, we were not always one step ahead... just wait for the surprise at the end! We highly recommend this play to all for a terrifically fun evening.

"Quartet" is a delightful play filled with humour and warmth. A fine depiction of the trials and tribulations (but NSP = no self-pity) of getting old(er). Many of the jokes will be especially appreciated by opera lovers, but non-opera people will not be left out in the cold. The performance of the "Rigoletto" quartet at the end is simply marvelous: it is absolutely believable that these people sang these roles frequently on stage, and many a true opera singer could learn something about how to act the roles from these 4 people. Outstanding! Congratulations to actors, director, set designer, lighting designer, and all other involved people.

Dear Bob. Cliff and all at The English Theatre.
Was delighted to see your new website with all its details. Very good wishes to all who are in Quartet - a marvellous play. By the way I have changed my stage name to Heather Kemble. Love to you all from us both Heather and Alan.

Hi. Let me second Marinell in that the new page design appears clear and easy to navigate :-)
We were at the performance of QUARTET last night and enjoyed it throughout! The play offers a balanced mixture of thought provoking seriousness on becoming old and/or being in a certain phase of life and lots of humor resulting from it. The actors and actresses fit their characters perfectly and did a hell of a job! With wishes for a successful run,

Oliver
