"Impressive choreography by Nick Winston brought the stage alive with dancers old and young, fizzing, leaping and stomping with exuberance" ***** Public Reviews

Reviews for YOUR'E A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN at the Tabard Theatre

"precision choreography (by Nick Winston). Nick understands how to use the confines of a small space to best effect without compromising expressive movement. "The Baseball Game" song is a good example of this" **** Public Reviews

"At this point it would be judicious to mention the clever choreography by Nick Winston, which makes great use of the limited space and shows off what the cast can do admirably" **** Whats On Stage

"deftly complemented by Nick Winston's clever, lively choreography" Spoonfed

"Suppertime for Snoopy turns into a Fred Astaire staircase and top hat number, as we are dazzled by group tap dancing with blankets and admirably detailed baseball-game replicating choreography." The Stage

Reviews are in for FINGS AINT WOT THEY USED T'BE at the Union Theatre.

"Phil Willmott's production, and especially Nick Winston's sparky, vibrant choreography, harnesses its energy perfectly" The Stage

"the rollicking tapping first act closer 'Contempery', which is where Nick Winston's choreography really takes off, to send the audience out to the bar glowing with pleasure" The Public Reviews

"A tap dance is exciting enough. But tap dancing and playing the spoons? That's so intoxicating, I'm surprised it's not banned" Time Out London

"An outstanding item is "Contemporary" by Horace (Richard Roster-King) who leads the cast into a wonderfully energetic and rhythmic tap dance to close act one. Choreography is excellent - sometimes Busby Berkley - by Nick Winston" Remotegoat

"the hilarious interior decorating numbers, "Contempery" and "Polka Dots...Nick Winston's choreography is a treat" Whats On Stage

"The highpoints almost all come from some sublime dance routines in a confined space, courtesy of choreographer Nick Winston, the pick of which is a tap-dance from a talented quartet" The British Theatre Guide
