Reviews
Wind in The Willows - one of the most joyous productions I've seen!
Went to Progress for very first time last night. Very impressive production of Gaslight. We will be back!
Sir Terry Pratchett Maskerade was brilliant :-)
Couldn't stop laughing
Saw Killer Joe tonight, highly recommend it! On until Saturday
Loved seeing Hamlet last night! Well done everyone � Having previously been a youth member at progress for nearly a decade, this theatre is close to my heart. Progress always put on an impressive, visionary show that has a lot of energy and hard work put into every aspect of running it. Amazing community, thank you for being in Reading xxxxx
Loved No Naughty Bits this afternoon, amazing cast and a joy to watch!
Just been to see WriteFest and it was brilliant! Such a great mix of mini plays, some funny, some thought provoking. Loved it. I will be returning.
I thoroughly enjoyed 'Much Ado About Nothing'. What a marvellous performance by cast and crew. I intend to pop along to the Reading Abbey ruins and watch it a second time!!
Huge thanks to everyone for the marvellous WOLVES OF WILLOUGHBY CHASE!!!! Fast paced, inventive, funny, hauntingly musical and performed with dash and style!!! I wish I'd come on the first day not the last...but many many thanks to all - Joan Aiken would be proud - best wishes, Lizza
Brilliant. Cast were fantastic. So engaging. And very dark x
Brilliant Clockwork Orange show tonight, thoroughly enjoyed it :)
Altro che teatro amatoriale qui in UK, sono bravissimi e ci mettono l'impegno dei professionisti.
Absolutely blown away by the standard of acting in Maskerade last night. Thank you all for bringing the characters to life in such a lovely way. �
