“As a child psychiatrist, Ben takes a developmental perspective to adult mental disorder and addictions. High rates of treatment resistance for PTSD and the challenge of tackling unremitting addictions with high rates of relapse leaves me feeling clinically impotent as a doctor. My work with abused children, seeing them grow into damaged and addicted adults, has brought him to the door of MDMA Therapy as psychiatry's best opportunity for a therapeutic breakthrough.”

“It has been twelve years since Prospero and his daughter Miranda were banished to their lonely desert isle. With Miranda now on the verge of womanhood, Prospero begins to tell her how they came to live in such a desolate place: that he is the true Duke of Milan, betrayed and overthrown by his own brother and cast away to sea with nothing. When a stormy night carries a boat-load of the Duke’s worst enemies to the island – including his traitorous brother, Antonio – Prospero begins to stir the sands of the past and take his revenge.”

“A DOLL'S HOUSE "A powerful and thought- provoking piece of theatre which is bold, entertaining and thoroughly lives up to the high expectations I have of this young company" - 5 STARS (Sarah-Jane Howard - 365 Bristol) "It’s worth the ticket for that final scene, alone. The rest … is bonus." - 4 STARS (Arthur Duncan - RemoteGoat)”

“Exciting and entertaining, Chai For All plays jazz-tinged klezmer, Old World Yiddish folk and New World Yiddish theatre songs, on a magnificent musical journey from the haunted Central and Eastern European shtetls, through the dimly-lit basement bars of tango-crazed Buenos Aires, to swinging New York's Second Avenue. Impassioned female vocals lead the party, against a joyous backing of violin, trumpet, guitar and percussion.”
