“Rosie Beattie’s Blanche is totally believable – and her descent into madness at the end of the play is so real its painful to watch.”

“Molly Scurrell’s Stella is a masterpiece. She gets the perfect balance between her strength and vulnerability – and her chemistry with Stan gives the play a sensuous reality.”

“Liam Gregory’s excellent vocal range and characterisation dominated the stage... The relationship with Stella is totally believable  - and he fills up the physicality of the part so much that at times makes the stage fizz with testosterone.”

“A complex, powerful, multilayered giant of a play – Streetcar would be a challenge for any professional company. They have tackled this challenge head on – and the result is a mesmerising production that leaves you almost as exhausted by the emotion as the characters on stage.”

““A triumph – an indication of how powerful this production was! The design, setting, lighting and a blistering soundtrack set the mood perfectly, and allowed the cast to own the space and grow in character as the story built. Southern Belle Blanche DuBois, bankrupt, a fantasist and liar, a snob and hopelessly damaged, lands like a time bomb on her sister Stella’a New Orleans apartment. Brilliantly and convincingly played by Rosie Beattie, we understand totally why Blanche hides behind images of herself, and her path towards complete breakdown was heartbreakingly played.” “Director Sally Scurrell got right under the text and created astonishing performances” Paul T Davies – Colchester Chronicle ”
