"Five stars: A stand out performance by Alys Daroy"—Time Out London

​

"Alys Daroy, in the title role of Emma Bovary, delivers a performance of pellucid beauty ... Miraculously drawing one into her innermost desires and vulnerability, this intricate, intimate, magnetic performance is a revelation, and lives on in the memory. She even draws humour, born of the anomalies of Bovary's own personality, which pours from Daroy's insight" —Chicago Critic

​

"Absolutely riveting ... the seeds of her eventual madness showed themselves in early decisions made. From her first entrance to her last, there was not a moment missed ... the most convincing Ophelia I have ever seen"—Andrew Muir, Shakespeare in Cambridge

​

"From her performance as Anna Karenina, Alys Daroy is obviously destined to be one of the leading stage actresses of her generation"—Sky TV, Take 101

​

"Alys Daroy is gutsy and passionate ... a stand out as Margarita in Bulgakov's masterpiece"—Camden Journal

​

"Alys Daroy is a fabulous Queen, utterly plausible in her ambition" —Chris Boyd, Melbourne Arts, The Australian

​

"Alys Daroy slithered, simpered and snarled about the stage like a nasty femme fatale (akin tot he prowess of Cate Blanchett). Her Queen combined regal pomposity with visceral nastiness, demonstrating adroit acting talent, Her career trajectory should be one to monitor: I found her mesmerising. Her work was intelligent and commanding." —Toorak Times
