Twelfth Night Press and Reviews

NS REVIEWS story.

NS REVIEWS - Twelfth Night Knocks it Out of the Park
”Patrick Jeffrey as Andrew Aguecheek is unusually funny. It’s very interesting to see him transform from the lovestruck, regal Duke Orsino into the foolish, none-too-bright Andrew with his mess of straw-like blond hair.”

THE WAY I SEE IT - “Jazzy Midsummer Madness in Shakespeare By The Sea’s Twelfth Night”
”I loved this production so much, and I was so excited about the music and the concept that I had to resist the urge to go up to the actors at intermission and rave about how great the show is, and how terrific they all are in it, while they were still in the headspace of their performance and their characters.”

Alice in Wonderland Reviews

NS REVIEWS: Summer Nights of Laughter With Alice”
”Alice in Wonderland is a wonderful way to spend a summer evening in Halifax with a few hundred other people at Point Pleasant Park.

”THE WAY I SEE IT - Alice In Wonderland Review:
”I really enjoyed Patrick Jeffrey’s White Rabbit, who works as second in command to the Queen, and seems to be both terrified of her, but also in awe of her strength and her power. Their relationship with one another, and then the Rabbit’s relationship with the other characters as someone acting as proxy to power, is quite nuanced at times and portrays a real truth, I think, that we see often in our societies. I felt genuine pathos for the Rabbit when he was asked to sacrifice his Teddy Bear for the benefit of his position within the monarchy. His hopping is also utterly delightful.”
