‘Enola Holmes 2’ with Sharon Duncan-Brewster
Sharon features in this anticipated sequel as ‘Maria Troy’. Premiering on Netflix on 4th Nov!
Duncan-Brewster, whose Denise is a powder keg of frustration and disappointment, [both women] tackle the challenge with relish… a riveting final blast.
Siobhan Murphy (The Stage) ****
The alchemy that Duncan-Brewster and Squires have cooked up together in a week marks a fitting end to a uniquely unlucky, uniquely brilliant piece of theatre.
Nick Curtis (The Evening Standard) ****
“Duncan-Brewster, sitting on the edge of an IKEA armchair, seems to make the theatre around her disappear. It’s pretty magical”
The Stage
“Duncan-Brewster’s voice is just to die for, by the way” The Double NegativeRead Review
“Duncan-Brewster as Sam, so confident in his/her emerging, tender masculinity that we forget this is a female actor in the role” The IndependentRead Review
“Exquisitely performed, Duncan-Brewster both bridles at the injustice of death and bristles at the enormity of it” What’s On StageRead Review
