★★★★ “Who Is Claude Cahun? is a rare piece of theatre: rich in history, emotionally intelligent, and profoundly relevant. All of the performances were excellent, the writing is sharp, and the story is one that demands to be told. A fascinating, moving, and timely piece of theatre. Thoroughly recommended.”

★★★★ “More than many fringe companies, I’d love to see what Exchange Theatre could do with more resources. Their infectious energy and enthusiasm, combined with technical skill and textual insight go a long way to fulfil their mission and their undoubted ability to bring classic French texts to life for multi-cultural audiences warrant bigger and better staging.”
