Reviews

'Within this production some of the sarcasm was just hilarious and nailed perfectly. Essentially though the mood is dark, Hedda's antagonism drives the action. Whether you are new to Ibsen or have seen the play many times, like all the greats, it was worthy of a visit.'

Fairy Powered Productions

‘The whole production is one of those things that is greater than its parts – the parts being played so brilliantly.... Well done Libby Harding, as a directing debut, you’ve made something quite memorable.’

Helen Brown, The Witham Blogpost

‘Susannah Handley was amazing as Hedda, she is clearly bored and uninspired by the life her future holds and desperately tries to cling onto the past, her mind is complex, creating a vulnerable yet explosive character.  This is clearly a role many women would love the chance to play and Susannah has grabbed the opportunity, showing what a star The Castle Players have.’
