A Collection of
Incredible Stories
RoughCut Theatre
"At the end of Stitched, when five actors take a bow, it comes as something of a shock. You expect at least ten people to walk out. This is due, in part, to well-rounded performances, but also to Rough Cut Theatre's inventive staging. If a character needs to travel, they don't move, the set does. Puppeteers dressed entirely in black slide paintings, pieces of paper and furniture across the stage - anything to give the illusion of motion."
THE SCOTSMAN
“The way the stories are told works brilliantly…The highlights are the action sequences and the creative use of props, which make for a wonderfully visual show…an all round, well-crafted piece of theatre definitely worth seeing.”
