The Globe and Mail“ - Tom Rooney, playing the pedant Holofernes, is the funniest in Love’s Labour’s Lost because of what he does with his entire body, not just how he delivers his lines. He acts as much with his legs – which suddenly become rubbery with lust, or rigid with wounded pride – as anything."

Broadway World - “Some of my favourite moments came from Juan Chioran as the Quixote-type Spaniard, Don Adriano de Armado-particularly when he was sharing scenes with the absolutely fantastic, young Gabriel Long as Moth… Mr. Long is up for the challenge of what is an extremely demanding role for a young actor-but he does it all, and seemingly with ease.”

Postmedia - “While the performances provide the meat of this production, the elegant columns and shaded greenery of the set and impeccably corresponding costumes — all courtesy of designer Patrick Clark -provide the seasoning. The result is a celebration -of language, of love and, ultimately, of maturity — that captivates in its delightful excess.”

Toronto Star - “Mike Shara firmly steps into the front ranks of Stratford leading men with his Berowne, a character so ingratiatingly brash, yet touching vulnerable, that you have to love him.”
