THEATRE REVIEWS (quotes):
“The main reason for seeing this show, though, is the stunning performance by Trine Thielen. A vibrantly animated actress with a lithe physicality and a wonderfully expressive face, she has the charisma and energy to carry the show. True star quality.”
(Russian Beauty, Melanie Branton, Theatreworld Internet Magazine, 2005)“Trine Thielen, as man-hunting murderess Estelle, gives a confident, sexy performance.”
(No Exit, Jeremy Austin, The Stage, 2004)
”Solange, Trine Thielen, with constantly scanning eyes and erratic movements, gives a most accomplished performance.”
(The Maids, Derek Smith, The Stage, 29/05/03)“As Louise, Trine Thielen is superb, alternately strong, defiant, vulnerable and helpless.”
(Two Silent Screams, Paul Vale, The Stage, 15/05/03)“Louise, played courageously by Trine Thielen.”
(Two Silent Screams, Franziska Thomas, Camden New Journal, 10/04/03)
