'Ruby Caddick Lawrence’s Despina as the soubrette maid is as raffish as Castellino’s Guglielmo and as cynical as Robson’s Don Alfonso, and makes a compelling case for maid liberation and sing with point and verve, not without her own romantic longing: perhaps most of all for hot chocolate.' - Simon Jenner, View From The Gods

Joel Robson (Don Alfonso), Katerina Oikonomou (Fiordiligi), Bartosz Thiede (Ferrando), Oscar Castellino (Guglielmo), Mahtab Ghamsari (Dorabella) & Ruby Caddick Lawrence (Despina) lead the production effortlessly, delivering excellent all-round performances and injecting additional humour when they exchange glances with the audience. In a stripped back production such as this, it is vital that the vocals are on point – the entire ensemble does not disappoint in that regard. A genuine delight to watch from start to finish. - Mind the Blog
