'Henry V' in the Blogosphere

Checking in again with Cultural Dessert, blogger Robin Simpson found the production " a very muscular account of this most masculine of Shakespeare’s plays which did its best to bring home the realities of war in a contemporary context" and " deliberately an ensemble piece."

Theatre Pumpkin found the "talented and hardworking performers" of Propeller worked "magic" on the play, and her review highlights the actor's versatility (with special mention of Karl Davies), costumes, sets, transitions and love of language that came together within the production.

The Bardathon focuses on Propeller's ability to highlight community and comradeship in Henry V, finding it "a rich and thoroughly entertaining performance" in a review that is rich with detail and analysis.  [e]
