"Vivien Leigh recreated. Wow." Libby Purves - "Absolutely perfect." LaTouteCulture - "Breathtaking." BBC - "Astonishing. Incarnated bewitchingly, as if by magic, by an actress without match." Le Nouvel Observateur - "An interpretation of genius." Reg’Arts, Paris - "Magnificent In the skin of Leigh..." La PariZienne - "High-voltage, intimate, radiant. Olivier said that Leigh exerted 'an attraction of the most perturbable nature' he'd ever known - which Lindeman also exercises. The ‘golden couple’ grippingly find a compelling voice." British Theatre Guide - "Haunting. Magnificently acted with fragility and force. Magic." Sortiz, Paris.
