Reviews

RICHARD III
"Potent and original "            
 Nick Curtis, The London Evening Standard

"Top of my list for cool"           
 Baz Bamigboye, The Daily Mail

"The energy and brilliance of the text take over, the result is compelling   
John Gross, The Sunday Telegraph

“Eddie Marsan’s performance as Richard is exemplary".
Alastair Macauley, The Financial Times

ROMEO AND JULIET
“This is a clear, vigorous production by the
Wild Thyme touring company"
John Peter, the Sunday Times Culture

“This very strong production looks set to join the ranks of previous productions such as Richard III, which received rave reviews and standing ovations.”  
Hull Daily Mail

HAMLET
This is more than just a curiosity...  there is plenty here to tempt the jaded appetites of those who have consumed too many Hamlets.

A cabaret atmosphere is sporadic... it does add to the production's strong sense of nostalgia for the past and melancholy for the future. (Director) Jameson pulls off his cross-gender casting. But beyond the artistic experiment, this Hamlet, positioned between two world wars, is in essence a plausible anthem to doomed youth.
Sarah Willcocks THE INDEPENDENT  

THE COMEDY OF ERRORS
“The coarse but genuine spirit of enjoyment that permeates the company helps them communicate their complicated comic plot with welcome clarity"                
Ian Herbert, Theatre record

THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR
“Stephen Jameson’s exuberantly sexy revival reveals this as Will’s greatest comedy hit. Well worth the trip”
John Thaxter, The Stage

“Known for their innovative productions and committed to making the Bard’s plays accessible to all Wild Thyme enjoys a high profile in Germany, and on the basis of this production a similar one here. Another successful production by Wild Thyme making Shakespeare fun and more accessible"
Sheila Armstrong,  The Archer Newspaper

HAMLET
Stephen Jameson's adaptation ... about the world's best-known Dane is a bit like finding yourself in a familiar room where the furniture has all been changed around. Not only does Jameson play tricks with the words and relocate some of those big speeches, but he has also cast it entirely with women... it has plenty going for it: there is a freshness about it, as if changing the gender of all the protagonists has helped to jettison much of the cultural baggage surrounding Hamlet.
