Wonderful adaptation - Samantha Womack was perfect in the rôle.
They did a very good portrayal of the book. Kept it true to the story. It was funny in places which was nice. Samantha coped well and seamlessly with a couple of prop mishaps. I recommend it
Excellent production. First time at this theatre, we will be back .
Excellent production thoroughly enjoyed it
Thoroughly enjoyable and gripping production.
Amazing show and good seats for the price we paid
This was the best theatre play I have ever been too! I loved it so much!
Excellent show and performance by all actors and actresses! Very enjoyable would definitely recommend to see!
the sound could have been better, struggled to hear some of the dialogue.
I enjoyed
Very good with a dramatic ending

Overall, I felt it was a lack-lustre performance from the leading lady. I loved the book but this sadly didn’t live up to my expectations.
