Spangleguts - London Bubble

Achieves the right mix of magic and humour...this show has a simple sweetness and some fine integration of video. Two hours that both nourish and entertain...His new wife is the village teacher, a woman who does not believe stories are useful, and whose rage and jealousy of her stepdaughter manifests itself in Li-Leng Au's wonderful witch woman. The Guardian - Lyn Gardener

...a strong cast...the versatile Li-Leng Au gives us a gravelly voiced witch The Stage

The Smallest Person - Trestle Theatre Company

Excellent from start to finish, not a single foot is put wrong by this multi-talented cast, Li-Leng Au, William Elliot, Vic Bryson, Nick Chee Ping Kellington and Michael Wagg. The Edinburgh Evening News****

The five-strong cast, aided by a wonderful selection of emotive masks, play multiple roles... But best of all is the wonderfully expressive Caroline puppet expertly manipulated by Li-Leng Au. The Metro****
