2015Gordon Winter makes an hilarious Chief Monkey with his insane white Rastafarian performance and terrifying darting eyes, a superb performance.
Andrew Kay 		thelatest.co.uk
2012Winter steals the show in the role of Mephistopheles. His conviction is so true that you forget he is acting.whatsonstage.com
2012Mephistopheles is even taller. Gordon Winter is really big, dressed in a slick gangster/banker suit. Evil, with loads of style.fringereview.co.uk
2012***** Black humour and the excellent Gordon Winter as deal-breaking demon Mephistopheles usher things along nicely.theargus.co.uk
