@OughtToBeClowns “Theatre folk are nothing if not resourceful and adapting to the pandemic naturally demands creative thinking. But it takes something special to be at the vanguard of such a movement and that is where @AdamLenson and @ALPmusicals find themselves…”

@nonobaguette Just watched Shift+Alt+Right and my god, what a fricking cool and innovative show. Congrats @HilmiJaidin @ALPmusicals the future of MT looks bright and exciting thanks to you. Congrats to the stellar cast, you were all breathtaking.

@jaredgoode The real horror of 2020 has been witnessing how quickly people cast aside their humanity. #SHIFTALTRIGHT captures that break reality with an incredibly well-executed concept, fantastic songs, and powerful performances.

@alexjlatham In the mess of uncertainty that is today, with limited prospects over the next month, #shiftaltright was a reminder of what @ALPmusicals and many other companies have been achieving in the face of adversity.

@LikeTheMonth_ In a timely reminder of how adaptable and creative theatre people are I watched #ShiftAltRight – a new musical streamed live in a genuinely innovative way. Well done @ALPmusicals and all involved. The show will go on somehow!

@BobbyJGathers Some fantastic music and a really interesting way of producing genuinely live theatre at the moment.

@LyndonSamuel Well @HilmiJaiden, what a brilliant, thought provoking piece #SHIFTALTRIGHT was. Congradulations to all involved @AdamLenson @ALPmusicals. So fantastically technical handled brilliantly, but most importantly, some bloody good music. £5 well spent.

@DanBottomley Really enjoyed watching #SHIFTALTRIGHT, amazing to see what CAN be produced right now. Also the notes that can be hit sat down in a swivel chair. Outside the box thinking at it’s canniest.

@LucyAlder25 Shift Alt Right was a masterclass in technological innovation.
