★ ★ ★ ★
thrilling … breathes new life into the Gothic tale with a feminist twist
WhatsOnStage on Dracula (Lyric Hammersmith)
★ ★ ★ ★
a clever feminist reworking … stirring, spooky, expressionist retelling
Evening Standard on Dracula
★ ★ ★ ★
Emma Baggott’s haunting production allows us to concentrate on just how determined Delaney was to avoid turning her two central characters into kitchen-sink heroines from the lower depths
The Times on A Taste of Honey (Royal Exchange)
★ ★ ★ ★
The play has its own jazz rhythm that Baggott perfectly paces – unhurried but never unengaging
WhatsOnStage on A Taste of Honey
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
a considered and cohesive whole, making a beautiful, worthy outing for Neilson’s play
WhatsOnStage on The Wonderful World of Dissocia (Theatre Royal Stratford East)
★ ★ ★ ★
original, brutal, memorable
