  • ‘If your heart lights up, your turn has come to join the group of sheep travelling through the mysterious and cold lands of Iceland’

    Fabrizio Pecori, My Media

  • ‘Great fun on multiple levels, and a love letter to the gift of our bodies’ senses, Kindur offers insights to participants of all ages.'

    Michelle Wang, Time Out Chicago

  • ‘We have been enjoying some elegant dance played out in front of hi-tech video projections by Italy’s Compagnia TPO, when suddenly the focus shifts to the audience. On the way in, everyone has been given a woolly ball to pin to their chest – now they start to glow. We realise we are not merely observers in ‘the adventurous life of sheep in Iceland’, but participants: it’s a signal to bleat or wave or, for selected audience members, join the flock on stage to do battle with the Icelandic elements, from melting ice sheets to smouldering volcanoes.'

    Mark Fisher, The Guardian

  • ‘However we define this show, though, it makes a memorable experience, for children aged six and over. ‘I want to see it more!’ piped one girl, as the lights came up; and from young theatregoers, there’s no higher praise than that.'

    Joyce McMillan, The Scotsman
