What AUDIENCES Are Saying

  • @KIRSTENP_R

    “I loved @RansackTheatre's #CatchingComets, but what I loved even more was how much my not-theatre-y partner loved it. All on board with design, narrative, slick movement. Along with @policecops_ they're throwing the doors open with different frames of reference + also being fun”

  • @STRAUBERO

    “The reason I keep seeing loads of theatre is that occasionally one will leap out and make it worthwhile. #moth @RansackTheatre”

  • @NADIA_MOLINARI

    “#moth @hopemilltheatr1 @RansackTheatre extraordinarily powerful production with brilliant performances expertly directed by @pblackhawkins”
