“IT IS A PERFORMANCE THAT CONFIRMS HOPKINS AS ONE OF OUR BEST SHAKESPEAREAN ACTORS”

 

HIGH PRAISE FOR JOHN HOPKINS IN MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING

 

We’re thrilled that JOHN HOPKINS has received incredible personal notices across the board for his performance as Benedick in Much Ado About Nothing at the Rose Theatre, Kingston. Congratulations John!

 

“It is a performance that confirms Hopkins as one of our best Shakespearean actors.” – Michael Billington, The Guardian

“John Hopkins’ Benedick seems to genuinely develop from boorish lad to sensitive soulmate with absolute integrity and equal humour” – Paul Vale, The Stage

“[John Hopkins] is, without doubt, the main reason to take the trip to Kingston to catch the show… he gives a wonderfully controlled and attractive performance… flinging himself around the stage with controlled abandon, launching a series of acrobatic press-ups, but also refined and thoughtful as the man truly finds himself in love.” – Sarah Crompton, WhatsOnStage

“Benedick, a visiting gentleman played with nigh on perfect comic timing by John Hopkins” – Mark Douet, The Times

 

Don’t miss John’s performance in Much Ado About Nothing at the Rose Theatre Kingston playing until Sunday 6th May. Book your tickets here.
