THE TELEGRAPH

"

The cast each deliver pitch-perfect performances...But it is Elizabeth Crarer who steals the show as the fun-loving but ultimately tortured Maria Marten. Her performance is effortless in Marten’s happier and carefree times and slowly builds a dark and brooding intensity as she transitions to the emotionally battered and confused woman prior to her death.
