What Reviewers have said about Lewis Davidson:


"Lewis Davidson performs this one-man show with great verve and ability... the work of a highly promising young performer."

The Scotsman

"The leads carry the action through with great conviction, Lewis Davidson and Liam Steward-George impress with equal charm and confidence, especially when playing opposite one another as the two rivals Vindice and Lussurioso"
Entertainment Focus

"Well chosen and hamonious ensemle... Lewis Davidson as Edmund and Harper James as Edgar deserve special mentioning."
The Greenwich Times

"In a schizophrenic and always compelling performance, the narrator[Lewis Davidson] plays the part not only of the vulnerable Robert Ingham, who aspires to be part of the Sideshow, but also a host of other characters... Go and see"      
 ThreeWeeks

"layered with some nice touches, including an atmospheric score and enough variety in the aerial work to keep us interested, although Icarus[Lewis Davidson] himself does a good job of that all on his own, imbuing his off-the-ground movements with an Olympic-style strength and grace."

The Scotsman


"Lysander [Lewis Davidson] with the bards marvellous words in his mouth was miles funnier than the yeah but no yeahs of that favourite of mine Little Britains - Vicky Pollard!"

The Advertiser

"Davidson has a real talent when it comes to aerial work, showcasing both his strength and grace, and the duet with Gregory was beautiful and inspiring from both performers."

The Public Reviews


"a bewitching sequence where Miranda and Ferdinand[Lewis Davidson] express their love for each other - on a trapeze. As well as proving themselves capable of some impressive physicality, the cast deliver strong performances, capturing the magical essence of Shakespeare's original."
Edinburgh Spotlight

"The sex scene between Michael[Lewis Davidson] and Wendy is delicately portrayed, the powerful silence and rough swift action easily establishing it as dramaturgically the best moment"
The Stage

"Actors Aqil Zahid and Lewis Davidson bring great energy to Sade and Marat"
Camden News Journal

A clear, unfussy approach to the text ensures the necessary clarity - Jamie O'Neill's Macbeth and Lewis Davidson's Banquo standing out in this respect."
