Reviews
COMPANY
★★★★★ "Yet while I could really pick any number of songs as stand-out highlights of this performance, it’s Esmee Cook’s The Ladies who Lunch that launches this show into the stratosphere. With depth, sensitivity and a killer belt, demonstrating maturity well beyond her years, Cook delivers a goosebump-inducing class act that deserves to be witnessed far and wide. Rarely do you see this level of talent from an amateur group on a Fringe stage." - Edinburgh 49
THE PILLOWMAN
★★★★ "Esmee Cook expertly runs the emotional gamut as wonderfully sadistic second-in-command Ariel” - Edinburgh 49
EIGHT
★★★★ "Esmee Cook’s apparently bumptious but frighteningly brittle call girl, wedded to outdated notions of social class, is perhaps the most successful, achieving layers of humour and sadness in a very short time." - All Edinburgh Theatre,
A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM
★★★★ "Esmee Cook had a wonderful regal air as Hippolyta and Titania, yet with an alluring edge that made the seduction of Bottom (Joe Mcardle) incredibly believable” Broadway Baby
