Description

"As playwright, composer and director, Mr Wood has given children a self respecting art form" (The Times) The Gingerbread Man - 'The perfect children's play, with lots of superbly silly jokes and foot-tapping songs ... a magnificent epic of comic disarray' (Time Out); The See-Saw Tree - 'We are made to feel at once that the theatre is something immediate and involving' (Times); The Ideal Gnome Expedition - 'David Wood has surely scored again ... yet another gently entertaining excursion into a fantasy world where eminently sensible values prevail' (Daily Telegraph); Mother Goose's Golden Christmas - 'I cannot recommend this pantomime highly enough ... an enchanting blend of mirth and music that captivates the hearts of mums, dads and kids' (Romford Observer)
