 **** Evening Standard
‘The final scene, where Beatrice and Benedick finally come together, is absolutely joyful. On the night I saw it, when temperatures hit 30C and London shone in the ebbing sun, they were called back for four curtain calls – something I’ve never seen before at the Globe. A delight.’
 
**** The Stage
’Walker introduces mirrored pairs of images reflecting the play’s darker themes... the immediacy of violence and vengeance in the characters’ dainty, yet dangerous world’

**** The Telegraph
‘When the Globe is in its element, there’s no more magical spot.’

**** Whatsonstage
‘A delight on a summer’s evening: a delicately calibrated and confident treat’
 
***** London Theatre
‘The Globe at its very best’.
