‘★★★★ An outstanding production… Director Tom Cooper's imaginative production of Amélie for RCS transforms the quirky romantic comedy into something greater…Technically, Amélie is one of the biggest and most ambitious, full-scale productions that I've seen at the Conservatoire…. a stunning display of talent and a beautiful piece of ensemble storytelling.’

‘★★★★ delightful and distinctive, with eighteen students performing as actor-musician-dancers… gorgeous use of puppetry… an ambitious and welcome production, showcasing the immense talent of Royal Conservatoire students. I left charmed by its warmth and creativity’
