Comment from theatre director in audience:
"You led from the front and gave the whole thing a grace and stability"

"You acted it beautifully in a way to really amplify the emotion of the piece. It was lovely to meet you and I hope you will be able to work with us in the future."

Review for 'Blood Wedding':
"... Miranda Harrison is powerful as the mother who has lost too many men to quick tempers, hot blood and the blade... the final scene of the three women ... has considerable impact, and says so much about the ways of men and the women left behind."
