Christiana Rose, BroadwayWorld: Maddie’s passion for STEM inspires curiosity, holds your attention throughout and is wonderfully family friendly. Maddie Moate's A Very Curious Christmas revels in festive science experiments and is a winner for children in an authentic way.

Lyndsey Winship, The Guardian: Book seats in the stalls to get the most out of it – there’s nothing worse than feeling like the fun (streamers shot from a giant cracker, snow, gingerbread-scented haze) is going on elsewhere and you can’t quite touch it. I ask my son about his favourite part. “The quiz!” he says. Did you learn anything new? “That mistletoe is really called ‘poo on a stick’!” he laughs delightedly. That is indeed the Anglo Saxon origin of the word. Scatological and educational: Moate has hit the kids’ entertainment sweetspot.
