…their 16th Century costumes, created by the talented Miriam Spring Davies… immersed us in the characters’ world of light comedy and dark tragedy.

Friday was simply a brilliant experience for me and I cannot compliment the team more, except by saying that you have set yourselves a very high bar for future productions. I look forward to returning next year. Thank you again so much for giving your time, energy and creative skills for the benefit of so many others. Well done.

…for all the cast and everyone involved in the performance of tonight’s Romeo and Juliet…I am utterly, gloriously blown away by the pure magic I’ve just been lucky enough to experience this evening! It’s my first ever visit to Tolethorpe, and tonight has been one of the most magical evenings of my life. One I will remember for ever…What you achieved tonight was simply extraordinary. Out of this world. I was transported. Enthralled. With you and living the story every single moment.

The adaption of the play, stage and acting was excellent with a great deal of authenticity. Having recently attended the Globe in London I can say that some of the actors on this stage would not have been amiss on that great one. A thoroughly enjoyable evening, a good show, we will be back.
