★★★★ “…nothing less than transcendental.” The Sydney Morning Herald
“A superb text for performance.” The Australian
“Hegh is superb… Attuned to Woolf’s anger, sarcasm and wit, she finds lovely moments of humour. Most importantly, she captures the brilliant, supple way that Woolf’s mind weaves around her subject.” Limelight
★★★★ "It’s hard to think of a play better adapted for these unusual times.” Time Out Sydney
★★★★½ “… (Anita) Hegh illuminates the poeticism and catches the shifting tempo and vehemence of ideas so well that you hang off each new thought like a jilted lover waiting for the phone to ring.” The Sydney Morning Herald
