REVIEWS

“Mockingbird Theatre makes its impressive theatrical debut in Canberra with The Judas Kiss….As Wilde, Baldock creates a monumental performance..one of the finest dramatic performances one is likely to see by a local theatre company…this powerful and moving production of The Judas Kiss is one that you won’t want to miss.” – Canberra Times

“We are very lucky to have work of this quality presented by talented local theatre practitioners…..Chris Baldock gives a towering performance as Oscar Wilde…..His performance is thoroughly believable and ultimately very moving…..The director has obtained fine performances from her entire cast. Liam Jackson gives a strong performance of great depth…..Patrick Galen-Mules is very convincing as Robert Ross…..The Judas Kiss was a good choice as a first production in Canberra by Mockingbird Theatre.” – Canberra Critics Circle

“…Mockingbird founder Chris Baldock is memorable as Oscar Wilde. His transformation from the first act’s deliberate nonchalance to the broken and abandoned Naples exile is striking…Patrick Galen-Mules does excellent work…For Wilde fans, Mockingbird’s production is a chance to see the source material live in a poignant performance.” – HerCanberra
