REVIEWS: "Madelaine is utterly irresistible, injecting the character with spirit, curiosity, playfulness and fear.” (Artshub) "Madelaine Nunn grabbed our attention from the beginning and her precision retained it throughout. I was reminded of the young British character actor Joyce Grenfell, known for her portrayals of naïve earnestness. I was struck by Nunn’s capacity to embody whatever she does." (TAGG) '"Sharp as a razor, very witty, very funny and beautifully directed with much visual humour. Madelaine Nunn– is a natural comedienne.” (Stage Whispers) "Maddie Nunn is delightfully impassioned and quick as the child Maggie, with nuance and accuracy" (Theatrepeople) "Madelaine Nunn as Hamlet is piercing and amusing as she expresses love for Ophelia in violent bouts without ever bothering to hear her response." (Theatre Press) "Nunn brings a winning wide-eyed generosity and pluck to the young Maggie" (Timeout)
