More excellent reviews of 'highly ingenious' Stevie

4 May 2014 21:14

Two more excellent reviews of Stevie have been published today. Highlights are below.

'In its own quiet way, this is a highly ingenious piece, slipping seamlessly between poetry and dialogue to create a vivid impression of both the poet and the private woman. [...] Wanamaker turns on a sixpence between high spirits and sudden piercing moments of desolation. And she discovers every ounce of humour in the role'
- Charles Spencer, Telegraph

'Zoë Wanamaker is Stevie in a tremendous performance of constant and often emotional dialogue which contains large paragraphs of her writing [...] This is a play which will keep you fascinated, stay with you long after you have left the theatre and inspire you to read more of the work of the complex character who was Stevie Smith.'
- Sheila Connor, British Theatre Guide
