"I was in London only for a week (I'm American) and was anxious to see some Shakespeare. FIrst I went to the Royal Shakespeare's wonderful 'ANtony and Cleopatra." A few days later, Feb. 20, I went to Brave New World's 'Two Gentlemen of Verona.' I was equally impressed. Hard to see this as 'fringe' in any way. I disliked the 1930s setting, and would have preferred plain modern streetclothes. But that's all I disliked. Cleverly directed, marvelously acted. Annabel Ballin was marvelous and both male and female; I hope someday I get to see her in 'Twelfth Night' and/or "As You Like It.' for that matter, I hope someday to see all these actors in large-scale professional theatres--as well as seeing more talented young folks via Brave New WOrld, which does them and their audiences such a wonderful service.

"The Two Gentleman Of Verona - Feb 2007

I saw this show on Tuesday and reckon it's one of the best pieces of fringe theatre I've seen. David Holby and Cameron Anderson are absolutely delicious as the two gentlemen of Verona and there's brilliant comic support from Elliot Inglese, Ben Wigzell and Adam Mongomerie. Annabel Ballin also desrves high praise for her beautiful portrayal of Silvia.

This is fringe at its most enjoyable with a young and talented cast - great fun and well worth a watch if you fancy some easily digestable Shakespeare and a warm glow inside on a chilly February night."
