The National Post - “Hay plays all 3 of the major women in his life: as the siren princess of the first scene she’s almost silent, mysterious and enticing; as Thaisa, she’s sincere with a hint of simper; as Marina, she seems at first almost too quietly innocent. But then…she flares up; confronting her unknown and unknowing father, she joins him in making this long-delayed recognition scene as moving as it should be.”

Broawday World - “Mr. Buliung has to tell the story that spans decades, of a man who first gains, then loses everything. Mr. Buliung is up to the task. He is dashing as a young, albeit somewhat unprepared knight, fighting for Thaisa’s affections and he is heartbreaking as the man who believes that he has lost everyone that he loves. Mr. Buliung has a leading man presence and it is on full display throughout the entire production.”

The Globe and Mail - “Count me among those who consider The Adventures of Pericles a mediocre play at best…The beauty of theatre, however, is that a bad play doesn’t have to be bad in performance. Indeed, in director Scott Wentworth’s production at the Stratford Festival, the more hackish the writing, the more fun is to be had.”
