"UNDER MARK LEIPACHER'S LITHE AND ASTUTE DIRECTION, THERE'S AN EXHILARATING SENSE HERE THAT THE ELEVEN-STRONG COMPANY HAVE PURPOSEFULLY SCRUBBED THEIR COLLECTIVE MEMORY CLEAN OF THE ENCRUSTED PLAQUE OF THE PLAY'S PERFORMANCE TRADITIONS. IT MADE ME FEEL AS THOUGH I HAD NEVER SEEN THE PLAY BEFORE... GO."
★ ★ ★ ★ THE INDEPENDENT
'AN ENSEMBLE PRODUCTION THAT REMINDS US THAT SCHILLER LOOKS BACK TO SHAKESPEARE AND FORWARD TO JOHN LE CARRÉ...
...ONE OF THE MANY VIRTUES OF THIS EXCITING PRODUCTION IS THAT IT GIVES US AN INTIMATE, STRIPPED-DOWN AND MERCIFULLY UNRHETORICAL VERSION OF SCHILLER’S GREAT 1800 ROMANTIC TRAGEDY.'

“NEVER LESS THAN GRIPPING”

'PLENTY OF DEPTH AND NUANCE, SKILFULLY UNPACKED BY THE RATHER WONDERFUL THE FACTION'
★ ★ ★ ★ TIME OUT
'SIMPLY BREATH-TAKING AND BEAUTIFULLY REALISED'
