★★★★
“A powerfully coherent performance”
“Congratulations must also be laid at the door of YEP member Leah Gold who immersed herself into the huge task of portraying Bianca with charm and passion, a strong wind of charisma that added to the overall contentment of the production and proved yet again how important YEP is to the continuing success of art and theatre in Liverpool and the future it holds”

What’s Good to Do
★★★★
“What struck me most was the universality of Shakespeare’s story about individual people; their need to belong, to love and yet to dominate. Straight, white and male or black and lesbian, the various characters in this tragic mess were all too human”

“At the centre of this strong ensemble cast stands the towering presence of Golda Rosheuvel”
