Reviews

  • “It’s a show that seems to imply Monty Python were right in believing all lumberjacks are in a permanent state of delirious happiness…scarily thrilling” 

    —The Guardian (London, UK)
  • “Timber! is one of those shows that make you want to run away and join the circus...It's all pretty mad but there's a joie de vivre that’s absolutely infectious” 

    —Telegraph (London, UK)
