REVIEWS:
'Of the supporting cast, Martin stands out for her musical performance, as well as an hilarious turn as Kathleen’s friend, Edna.'
Mind the Blog
'The production’s sound design, by Claire-Monique Martin takes full advantage of the church setting and atmosphere. If it sounds like faint praise to start by mentioning sound design then it isn’t meant to be – it’s just that her design was very successful!'
Theatreland Talks
'Claire-Monique Martin does a good job of reminding us how much this is her tragedy too.'
'The haunting strains of Jessica’s violin (Martin herself) captures the restlessness of her spirit.'
'Especially in Martin's case - barely disguise contempt. Babe's spiteful, screeching self-interest is both loathsome and humorous' viewsfromthegods.co.uk,
'Its success also hinges on Martin's sensual but troubled portrayal of Elizabeth Taylor - she captures Liz's essence.'
'Simply a delight to hear music played live - Claire-Monique Martin's violin is an eerie presence on and off stage,'
'Claire-Monique Martin and Thomas Shirley brought convincing nervousness and emotion to the part of the young lovers,'
'The bright costumes, are certainly beautiful, as is Claire-Monique Martin's voice as the chorus singer'
'There is success in the way the people of Thebes are portrayed, especially with Claire-Monique Martin's beautiful lead singing.'
