In the Deep End: A Vanilla Bland Adventure
By Michelanne Forster

Comments about Calico's earlier productions of In the Deep End: A Vanilla Bland Adventure
"One of the best I've seen in a long time in children's theatre… imaginatively staged and great fun to watch." – Laurie Atkinson, Evening Post
“The play was fantastic… The children throughout the school were spellbound. We were impressed with the content of the play, the special effects – the fish, the jaws theme, the effective and death defying scaling of cliffs, and with how appropriate it was for the children at all levels. Great delight was taken by both children and adults in the audience.”
– Staff at Berhampore School
