Joyce McMillan, The Scotsman (Peer Gynt)
The finest piece of classic theatre Scotland has produced in half a decade.
The Scotsman (Peer Gynt)
A perfect and perfectly unexpected marriage of music and theatre…the songs of Craig and Charlie Reid are a true gift to the stage.
Mark Fisher, The Guardian (Sunshine on Leith)
