REVIEWS
TREASURE ISLAND
"The show is almost stolen by Nadeem Islam who, as Trelawney, gives an irresistible comic turn". (The Guardian)
"Another highlight for me was the performance given by Nadeem Islam who played the Admiral. Charming, funny and spontaneous, Islam performs easily in BSL and with spoken english too. Islam provided several of the comedy moments of the night". (The Limping Chicken).
