THE FAMILY SEX SHOW

By Josie Dale-Jones and ThisEgg

John Biddle’s sumptuous choral score is key to this slick, polished production.

Close to being through-composed, the production is dominated by music, the harmonic power of the ensemble a statement of collective action in itself
 
THE GUARDIAN
on Oliver Twist

John Biddle’s driving, ever-present score drenches everything in an atmosphere
at once spooky and familiar
 
EXEUNT
on Unconditional

John Biddle's sound design adds detail to the play-world with a volatile blend of unsettling foley and amplification ... an exciting texture

WHAT'S ON STAGE
on Oliver Twist

The songs by John Biddle, given gutsy ensemble renditions, add variety to a show with narrative clout
 
THE GUARDIAN
on A Christmas Carol

The live music and songs are essential to the plot, and have an edgy, raw quality.
There’s something of the indie rock gig about this performance

LONDONIST
on Rift Zone

Everything perfect: light, angry, galvanising, kind
- Maddy Costa

Stimulating work ... STILL WAITING urged action
- Susanna Clapp
THE OBSERVER

on Still Waiting
