MEDEA Penguin Audiobook:
Good performances all round, especially from Tamsin Shasha in the title role, make it clear why the Greeks were so excited by this play more than a millennium ago
Financial Times

Tamsin Shasha is chillingly convincing as the mad but marvellous Medea
The Independent

ANTIGONE: The incredibly agile Tamsin Shasha played Teiresias, whose display of aerial gymnastics…greatly added to this remarkable performance
Halifax Courier

Particularly striking was Tamsin Shasha’s Teiresias hanging head-down by one leg from a bar, talking to Creon of the need for balance…breathtaking
Venue Magazine, Bristol

BACCHAE: Tamsin’s soliloquy as Dionysus was superbly performed Dionysus..inspired casting she moves with power, agility and potent sexuality…worthy of any good physical theatre performance I have seen
South West Arts

Having Tamsin Shasha play Dionysus added a welcome ambiguity to the gender war-her agility never ceased to impress
Aberdeen Chronicle

AGAMEMNON: Tamsin Shasha was outstanding in the central role, imbuing Clytemnestra with a tantalising mixture of menace and tenderness
The Spectator
