★★★★ THE TELEGRAPH ★★★★ THE GUARDIAN ★★★★ WHATSONSTAGE ★★★ THE TIMES
‘‘An inventive production crammed full of puppets, sword fights and rousing melodies shrieks with life. Cleary’s compositions, with lyrics by her and Brunger, are nothing short of a hoot’ The Guardian
‘Jake Brunger and Pippa Cleary have rustled up a tuneful Treasure Island - so finely wrought it warrants a much longer life. This is destined to become a very hearty hit indeed.’ The Telegraph
‘Jake Brunger and Pippa Cleary remain part of the new guard of British musical theatre. It’s witty, buoyant work that strengthens their promise and proves that family theatre can be clever without losing its heart.’ Whatsonstage
‘Cleary’s songs defiantly avoid pantomime perkiness, ranging instead from sea shanties to piratical pop ballads’ The Times
“Every song is a banger!” - Jayde Adams
