The Lord Of The Rings.
Based on the Books by J.R.R. Tolkien

  • Original season at The Watermill Theatre July 2023 to Oct 2023

“The Greatest Show on Middle-earth”

The Guardian, 02 August 2023.  

 

“…a beautiful, luscious staging of the epic musical version of The Lord of the Rings… every movement is impressively finessed… mesmeric use of projection… boldly inventive puppetry… a company that embodies the camaraderie the fiction itself celebrates.”

The Telegraph, 02 August 2023.

 

“Crackles with innovation”

iNews, 02 August 2023.

 

“Paul Hart’s production is something rather wizard… it is filled with battles, fellowship, adventure and emotional intimacy. Terrific lighting, projections and puppetry play a huge part.”

The Mail on Sunday, 13 August 2023.

 

“… an unmissable, spectacular production”    

British Theatre Guide, 08 Oct 2023

 

“Paul Hart’s spellbinding production… is an old-fashioned appeal to the imagination, using the stage as a box of brilliant tricks… Simple yet ingenious lighting, illusion, puppetry and projection transport Frodo — and the audience — through mystical lands… I arrived a Tolkien sceptic and left beguiled.”

The Daily Mail, 24 August 2023.

 

“Precious moments of magic”

The Stage, 02 August 2023.

 

“…this extraordinary retelling at the Watermill Theatre draws its audience into the narrative like no other medium I have experienced…as well as being extraordinarily exuberant and inclusive, this production had found its time and purpose too. Tolkien would have been so proud…”

WhatsOnStage, 02 August 2023.

 

“…a beautiful, moving evening of theatre, and a wonderful chance to immerse yourself in Tolkien’s great story.”
