*****
The Times
War Horse at the Lyttelton, National Theatre.
“The whole production oozes class. Katie Henry, directing this revival, melts scene into scene, enormous crowds bleeding away into moments of intimacy in the blink of an eye”.
"It was an extraordinarly beautiful show - the stage craft was incomparable - truly exceptional and symphonic in execution - the performances nuanced and intellectually and emotionally true."
Stephen Jameson, Artistic Director & Principle at Mountview Academy.
'HER NAKED SKIN'.
"Their sense of period playing and grasp of the intonation of these characters is both attractive and awesome...No wonder they got a double curtain call at the first night...The skilful combination of text, lived-in performances and warm understanding of the play’s demands have supplied Miss Henry with a small-scale but satisfying triumph ."
John Thaxter, British Theatre Guide about LAST TRAIN TO NIBROC, Orange Tree Theatre.
"In an age of showy, handprint directors, Henry follows the Orange Tree’s spirit in helping the writer’s voice speak for itself. This isn’t to deny the careful shaping of both spot-on performances, Chris Starkie’s Raleigh a mix of honest eagerness and nerves, Heather Saunders’ May providing a dialogue between words and detailed facial expressions that convey her hopes and uncertainties in as perfect a performance of this minor jewel as could be imagined."
Timothy Ramsden, Reviewsgate. LAST TRAIN TO NIBROC, Orange Tree Theatre.
