The NSDF judge and critic Robert Hewison described Leviathan as ‘a poetic event of visual and aural beauty’ and Cosmic Family as a ‘hilarious expressionist cabaret’ in the Sunday Times of 15 April 2006.

Klaus Kruse won Director’s Guild Award for directing Leviathan.
Leviathan won Judge’s commendation for Soundscape and The Cosmic Family won the Solvents an award for Versatility at the National Student Drama Festival 06, in Scarbourough.

It took 48 hours and 30 NSDF06 technicians to make possible for Leviathan to exist in a new space!
A wonderful technical team of 30 people re-created the characteristics of the Foxhole Theatre, for which the theatre in the round piece Leviathan was originally built. The work took 48 Hours rather than 15 planned but the space was ready in time for the first scheduled show.

‘A young performance company full of verve and attack who explore stimulating
concepts and reframe them in their own distinctive style. They have a
charming performance style, which is believable and engaging, and the
worlds they create are a delight to be part of. The Solvents are addictive.’
- Ian Abbot, South West Dance
