"Roland Wood's Papageno alone makes sense of his surroundings. Wood is a natural comedian who should go far, not least because he uses his lusty voice and northern accent with such charm."
FINANCIAL TIMES, 'The Magic Flute'

"Star of the show was Roland Wood, whose nicely sung, lugubriously Lancastrian Papageno made the most of jokes provided by Kit Hesketh-Harvey."
THE DAILY TELEGRAPH, 'The Magic Flute'

"...the comedy factor was high, due in large part to Mr Wood's brilliant Papageno. A fine comic actor, he fitted the part like a glove, even managing to do a Morecambe and Wise take-off with ease. His rich baritone voice was a treat, too".
MAIL ON SUNDAY, 'The Magic Flute'

"At the heart of this dizzy farrago was an extraordinary impersonation of Eric Morecambe by the Papageno, Roland Wood."
