A Midsummer Night's Dream review
Matthew Baynton is a comic genius in this modern day version of Shakespeare's comedy.
Sarah Probert, The Birmingham Mail, 15th February 2024A Midsummer Night's Dream review
As delightful as Mathew Baynton is, this is no star vehicle. Eleanor Rhode's trippy, illusion-inflected production might take a little while to find its footing, but once it does it shapes up into joyous and smart popular entertainment delivered by a crack ensemble.

A beautiful farewell to a sublime sitcom.
Jack Seale, The Guardian, 25th December 2023Ghosts 2023 Christmas special review
A fittingly slight send-off for a gently, witty comedy that has always been unshowy.

This episode - the whole show, in fact - has the charm and creativity to stand as a timeless comedy classic.
