More excellent reviews of the Kenneth Branagh Theatre Company's productions of All On Her Own and Harlequinade have now been published, with Zoë's portrayals of guilt-ridden Rosemary and formidable Dame Maud earning considerable praise, as shown below.

Harlequinade is 'infectiously warm-hearted'. Zoë 'excels' in All On Her Own (Sarah Hemming, Financial Times)

Harlequinade is 'appealingly silly'. In All On Her Own Zoe's 'performance is at once fierce and melancholy – finely judged and genuinely sad' (Henry Hitchings, Evening Standard)

'All On Her Own features Zoe Wanamaker in glorious form as a woman wracked with guilt' (Leslie Felperin, Hollywood Reporter)

In Harlequinade Zoë is 'the real scene stealer'. In All On Her Own she gives a 'dark, stylish performance'. (Charlotte Marshall, Official London Theatre)

In All On Her Own Zoe paints a 'starkly vulnerable portrait' of widowed Rosemary. In Harlequinade 'Wanamaker is a hoot' (Marianka Swain, The Arts Desk)

'A terrific Zoe Wanamaker plays Rosemary' in 'memorable' monologue All On Her Own (James FitzGerald, Londonist)

All On Her Own 'is brought to life by Wanamaker in a tantalisingly engaging performance'. Harlequinade is 'a hoot' (Chris Omaweng, London Theatre 1)

In All On Her Own 'Wanamaker depicts the slow unravelling of [Rosemary's] innermost thoughts with a captivating vulnerability' (Daniel Perks, A Younger Theatre)

This double bill of Terence Rattigan plays is being staged at London's Garrick Theatre until 13 January. Tickets are available.
