REVIEWS
In Classical Plays
"Danielle Farrow show[s] real flair and versatility in her three roles as Cerimon, Fisherwoman and a very strong Bawd."
REVIEWS GATE - Thelma Good (Shakespeare)
"Spice comes from the relationship . . . Mr Godden and Miss Farrow fairly set the stage alight . . . Their understanding of the language, combined with strong stage presence, allows them to build a real sense of character. The ebb and flow of a central argument scene between them is superbly played. They master all the subtleties of surface formality while creating a wickedly observed scene familiar to any domestic argument."
EDINBURGH EVENING NEWS - Thom Dibdin (Restoration)
"Danielle Farrow's seamless handling of iambic pentameter and comic versatility lights up the stage whenever she's present."
EDFRINGE.COM - Barry Woods (Shakespeare)
"The four actresses were excellent: confident and word-sure . . . [and] strong characterisations left the audience in no doubt as to who was who."
HI-ARTS - Steve Coomber (Shakespeare - cast of 4, various distinct roles)
In New Writing Plays
"Danielle Farrow is excellent as The Woman. . . . [She also plays] the star of the show . . . a deep red dress with gold lace trims and highlights. Farrow’s success is that she makes you believe that this is the sort of dress which transforms the person who puts it on. They don’t so much wear it, as it is the dress which wears them - a skin that has its own entity and just needs flesh and bones over which to settle."
EDINBURGH EVENING NEWS - Thom Dibdin
"Farrow is a highlight . . . as she flits between the sweat-drenched wiles of the mistress and the cowed nervousness of the wife. Whether moving hypnotically in a dance of seduction as one, or twitchily evading the therapist’s questions as the other, her versatile performance is unstrained and engrossing." [She is also] "the most powerful character in this provocatively sensual and compelling new work - The Dress itself".
EDINBURGH SPOTLIGHT
"Performances are equally controlled and impressive, with the 9-strong cast demonstrating great ability to portray nuances of emotion and inner motivation. Particularly strong are [Marion] Shortt herself and Danielle Farrow in the ‘Sisters’ thread, with Shortt’s clipped and frustration-borne performance as a member of the ground staff contrasting with Farrow’s wide-eyed and childlike portrayal of her psychologically-damaged sibling. This piece is the core of In Transit and is written and performed excellently, resulting in a moving and memorable backbone to the whole production."
EDINBURGH SPOTLIGHT
"Farrow’s transition between innocent housewife and whore was both engaging and comical, bouncing off [Andrew] Henry’s hapless Doctor and sleazy husband."
TVBOMB - Jenni Gould
