PAST PRODUCTIONS
★★★★ "Shakespeare has rarely been more exciting. Insane Root has set the bar high and clearly is in the business of making outstanding theatre. Not to be missed" - TheatreBath on Macbeth at the Redcliffe Caves
★★★★★ "This is a pacy, exciting and fully immersive production" - femalearts.com on Macbeth at the Redcliffe Caves
"Ghostly moans echo at key plot points, dark figures emerge from behind shadowed pillars to scare the bejases out of audience members, and the entire experience feels like a wander inside Macbeth's famous 'heat-oppress'd brain'" - Bristol 24/7 on Macbeth at the Redcliffe Caves
★★★★★ "[Insane Root] has again triumphed by fitting the performance to a truly special venue and...are clearly a company with true insight and should be widely recognised. We can only hope for more!" - Bradley Stoke Radio on Orpheus & Eurydice in the Suspension Bridge Vaults
★★★★"...an adventurous immersive experience that embraces the fun side of theatre" - The Stage on Orpheus & Eurydice in the Suspension Bridge Vaults
"The show is...charming, performed with verve and passion by the quartet of actors, and features some haunting music from Ellie Showering...its location is never just a gimmick. The story and the setting always support each other. When you emerge blinking into the light, you have left a little of yourself behind." - Lyn Gardner's Blog (The Guardian) on Orpheus & Eurydice in the Suspension Bridge Vaults
★★★★½ "Insane Root Theatre’s The Tempest balances Shakespearean tradition with exceptional adaptation, and through repurposing the text, the temporality, and the tone, the cast and creatives get closer to the heart of the play than any production of The Tempest this reviewer has seen, and it’s all happening right beneath the heart of Bristol." - ReviewsHub on The Tempest in St John on the Wall's Crypt
"With its otherworldly music, elegant candle-lit staging and energetic performances, this is distilled Shakespeare that reveals the essence." - Bristol 24/7 on The Tempest in St John on the Wall's Crypt
An ambitious open-air adaptation set in Eastville Park's Old Swimming Pool Garden.
