'Roxana Haines and her company have made the conceit of adding their own layer of narrative to the many other stories in the music work with real panache... It might be genuinely very funny and often surprisingly moving, but this clever production also becomes a fine example of light music being taken seriously, as it deserves.' **** The Herald
'The evening was a delightfully entertaining mix of drama, tragedy, pathos and comedy which all four singers engaged in with great energy and enthusiasm. ' **** ScotsGayArts
'Of note is Roxana Haines direction, which is tight and breathes even more life into the already sprightly programme.'
