What I liked

Wonderfully acted, especially Hilary Kelman, who plays Cathrine of Aragon. The format of the play kept the pace moving in a lovely way. A nice blend between modern and historical language. An overall tight, well-done show that deserves a wide audience.

What I didn't like

Although I enjoyed the production immensely, the ending could have been just a little tidier. It felt like there was a slight double-ending which could perhaps be tied into one. However – a small, small criticism given all the successful aspects of the production.

My overall impression

Strong cast. Solid writing. Well staged. All in all a fantastic production that surprised me in all the good ways.
