Testimonials
"I wasn’t really sure what to expect, and to be honest, was unsure about how it would go down, but I was blown away by the performance. It was perfect for the setting in the woodland. I spoke to a few people who watched the performance, including the arts show host from Preston FM who described it as “mesmerising” and he demanded to pay for his ticket! The children I saw watching were absolutely captivated.
The setup, props and costumes really looked the part. The signage was perfect; this is often something that events providers forget about but this was already taken care of.
They were all brilliant to work with and I would be really interested in working with them again in the future."

"It's wonderful! We couldn't find anywhere to pay, everyone wanted to pay! Because it's just so good, you don't expect this kind of thing to be free, and so close to home. It was just really magical! I enjoyed it so much I stayed and watched all three performances!"

"I've always loved going to the ballet and always wanted to dance myself when I was younger. I was previously unsure about contemporary dance but was pleasantly surprised and became gripped by the performance. I thought the story was told beautifully and was very moving, unlike other contemporary dance I have seen before. I will be watching out for Tangled Dance Company with interest!"

Didsbury Parsonage Representative
"The performance of Once Upon A Twisted Tale increased the number of visitors to our gardens and encouraged them to explore the different areas by following the performance. The performance was very well received by the public; we have had a lot of positive feedback about the performance from our customers often asking about future performances from the company. It was suitable for all ages, the audience ranging from 2-90; it was an enjoyable experience for all those who visited and a great event for the community.
The company themselves were professional and efficient throughout. They were easy to work with and respected the gardens. I would recommend Tangled Dance Company to any other venues, organisations or funding distributers interested in working with or supporting the team."

Hidden Gem Garden Centre
"It was a truly magical experience! I really enjoyed following the story and being surrounded by the elaborately costumed characters. The children were really excited to join in with the workshop and break the magic spell of the poisened apple, which their grandma enjoyed helping them with. It's very exciting to see high-end art as an outdoor performance in our local area; what a lovely family day out!"

"The production was an amazing success with sell out performances and was universally praised by visiting audiences. Tangled worked with many elements of the local community bringing them together to produce a professional and inspirational work that was original in scope from the specifically designed score to the contemporary dance. We felt that the production was the perfect complement to our Grade II listed Park and Grade I listed Hall respecting both the history and the value of the park and its assets.
We found the Tangled team to be professional, responsive to our needs and collaborative in ensuring their productions at Heaton Park were of the highest quality."
Ken Wilson - Heaton Park Events Manager
"We are committed to supporting local bussinesses, especially those that bring creativity and positive experiences to the community. I would recommend the company for any partnership as I have found them to be both efficient and professional in their process of work."
