Margaret Drummond, The Theatre Times on Love in a Nutshell
The performers multi-role with consistent neatness, altering their voices with distinct clarity. The stellar physicality is executed with precision...Even the more static scenes run fluidly with captivating gesture and pristine vocal delivery. The physical comedy is expert level. The work here is impeccable.
George Collins, A Younger Theatre on Love in a Nutshell
It is a two-hander, with strong performances from Vlada Lemeshevska as Antigone and Oleg Sidorchik as Creon. Reducing the list of characters brings it in to become something much more claustrophobic, making Lemeshevska’s quiet strength while Sidorchik volleys between extremes of anger, cajoling and an unexpected foot fetish all the more admirable.
