• Hall is enjoying a blaze of glory, directing with freshness and magificently catching the miraculous mixture of humour and sadness with superb precision.

• The Sunday Times  

• There are beautiful moments in this show, not least its metronomic ending as the characters recognise their fate.

• Those wanting an "Uncle Vanya" that finds both the aggression and the antic humor behind the torpor, look no further.

  The New York Times
  
• The Guardian  
• The Independent  

• Like all great Chekhov productions, this Vanya creates the illusion that we are watching the unmediated flow of life itself rather than a carefully calculated piece of art.

• Congratulations on 'Uncle Vanya'. Benedict Nightingale of the Times & the rest of his chums gave you four stars. Cheapskates! I'll give you the maximum five. This afternoon's performance was an absolute joy.

• My wife and I saw Uncle Vanya at Brighton last week and we wanted you, and all concerned with the production, to know how much we enjoyed the performance, which we thought admirable in every respect. Many years ago we saw a memorable production with Ralph Richardson, Laurence Olivier, Joyce Redmond and (we think) Margaret Leighton. Our memories of it are still vivid. We thought your production was better!
