“Choreography by Paul Chantry & Rae Piper is incredibly expressive. The whole chorus moves sometimes en masse, sometimes as soloists in a crowd of solo dancers, making the chorus truly star of the show.”
REMOTE GOAT - Arthur Duncan

"The ensemble work from the cast is superb, especially the physical work and cleverly-choreographed dances, and the energy coming off the stage is tangible."
A YOUNGER THEATRE - Eleanor Turney
"….an exuberant cast dancing and creating huge movement and life on stage. …its strengths in this production were the visual and audio presentation and stylish choreography. Paul Chantry and Rae Piper created a series of breath taking sequences."
