Reviews
Brilliant in every way!
Gisele Turner, Going Places
In a word. Wow! Durban’s phenomenal KickstArt theatre company has once again hit the jackpot. A production of sheer class and style. This is as good as it gets.
Keith Millar, Artsmart
Heavy with humour and credibility, it also has moments of poignancy, and in this revival Lisa Bobbert delivers it all with conviction and confidence, and a mix of fun and sweet vulnerability. Her standing ovation on opening night was well deserved.
Billy Suter, The Mercury
Durban actress Lisa Bobbert does an excellent job of giving Shirley Valentine life on stage. It’s no wonder she has won multiple awards for this role.
