Reviews

Habit of Art is very funny, sweary, rude and poignant and really quite beautifully played by everyone. Someone's had fun with W H Auden's supremely squalid wardrobe. Highly recommended.

Lisa Thomas


Throughly enjoyed Habit of Art tonight! Great performances and fantastic set...although a bit strange being able to see right through backstage it really did feel like we were sitting in on a rehearsal!

And a special mention for Dennis Fenton's cameo.

Hayley Thomas


Loved Habit of Art this evening, sterling performances from a very strong cast, laughs on many levels, book a ticket, you know you want to.

David Carr

Caroline Durant

And we backstage enjoyed Caroline Durant enjoying the show.
