Extracts from a review ....."1812 Theatre Company's excellent, emotionally-charged production...Even if you have seen the 1993 film with Anthony Hopkins and debra Winger, Shadowlands is still shattering...
Powley... pours heart and soul, humour and gentle charm into his performance, while Stockbridge brings a combustible sparkle and dignity and grace to Joy and young Charles Bailey expresses all the confused feelings of a child. Add Vaughan Williams' music and weep." (Charles Hutchinson)
