"sharp, punchy choreography from Tim Jackson"

Musical Theatre Review

★★★★★

 

"Jackson’s musical background is clear, his choreography often seeming closer to composition in the way unison bodies are made to create sound."

A Younger Theatre

​

"The staging of Consider Yourself One Of Us…is one of the highlights of the show."

The York Press

 

“Tim Jackson shows how tight execution of inventive choreography can do not just anything but everything to animate a production. The opening rendition of ‘Food, Glorious Food’, with a recipe of smart twists and turns by the workhouse urchins, kicks off with convincing vigour. Brassy ratta-tat-tats from metal bowls and the pounding of stamping feet find the energy and dynamism usually reserved for tap dance.  “

A Younger Theatre

"The ensemble numbers are thrilling and Jackson’s work is Who Will Buy? is just a delight"

Jonathan Baz

​

"expertly drilled with strong ensemble work and nifty, stylish choreography by Tim Jackson."
