• "Tutti Arts - Between the Worlds - Program 2007"
  Tutti Arts - 'Between the Worlds' 2007 Program - reads, in part “The first stage of Between the Worlds In May 2004 was called Circles and was about relationships with significant people In our lives. The second stage development this year Involved Interviewing all our actors to explore deeper relationship themes. One of these interviews was with our talented male lead, Alistair Brasted who said: "I've always felt between the worlds, not knowing where I really belong". This Insight resonated with all our artists and became the theme of the whole script because they had all experienced feelings of exclusion. The story of Romeo and Juliet and their love which transcends hate and divisiveness served as inspiration for Between the Worlds. In our story the Innocence of Isabella and Oliver's love In the face of adversity has allowed us to explore universal questions of discrimination and difference which lie at the heart of violence. Such stories have been with us since the beginning of time. Like the script, the songs and music for Between the Worlds are the expression of the Individual voices of our actors.”
• "Tutti Arts - Mouth Music - Program"
  Tutti Arts 'Mouth Music' 2006 Program - reads, in part "Jem has recently made a big decision, and Mouth Music is his story. Because Jem is non-verbal, the idea of speaking and not being heard is a major theme. Jem has some important things he wants to say to the world, not least that we must look after the earth and also learn a thing or two about looking after each other. Mouth Music has involved Tutti in the very roots of vocal music-making and has strong emotional resonance for anyone concerned about the voice of the individual and the state of the world. It has been a pleasure to develop this very different new work with Jem and poets.“
