Music :)

Story :)

Singing :|

Production/Scenery :) :) :)

One of the more spectacular production in London, I won't go into detail, but believe me, other things might let you down but not the production. Jim Henson's Creature Shop is the incredible.

Costume :) :)

Acting :|

Kid's stuff.

What the pro ( Mr Thom Dibdin ) said about the touring show

Mark's Thompson's set are obviously built to fit the smallest venues of the tour,their sheer inventivness and attention to detail is constanly intriguing...

Philip Schofield - who seems to be holding back as the relexed and slightly arogant Doctor...Liza Pulman provides adequate diversion as Emma Fairfax, while David Ganly is strong in supports as Matthew Mugg.

The actors take second place to animals created by Jim Henson Creative Shop.
