REVIEWS
“A haunting musical drama… a powerful tale with twists, turns and stirringly emotional songs. TalkinBroadway.com
“Complex and intricate. The melodies and harmonies reward careful listening…The rumours of the death of the new British musical are greatly exaggerated.”
British Theatre
“Connor and Pearse brilliantly keep us on the edge of our seats throughout this tragic yet beautiful story.” Adventures In Theatreland
“The Stationmaster has one of the most thrilling new scores I’ve heard from a British composer since Howard Goodall, a clear influence (but so is Adam Guettel). Step forward Tim Connor. We will be hearing a lot more from him.” ShentonStage
“Delivers wave after wave of emotional beats.” Musical Theatre Review
“Tim Connor's music and lyrics are a delight to listen to, with stunning orchestrations from Jason Carr.” West End Best Friend
