Katherine Senior

Plays International Magazine “The production owes much to the excellence of the hardworking Katherine Senior as Mrs Malaprop. At no time does she rely solely on the stylised verbal blunders and her rounded treatment of the role broadens it from one who is existing solely through the love affairs of her niece to a more credible figure.”

 

The Stage “Katherine Senior is exquisite as Mrs Malaprop – it’s worth seeing the production for her performance alone. She continually encourages the audience into her conspiracy with lots of little sideways glances and smiles.” 

 

Phyllida Lloyd  (dir.The Iron Lady, Mamma Mia)" Katherine Senior - despite being very much a junior - gave a bravura performance as the eccentric octogenarian Maude. I laughed out loud." 

 

Colin Blumenau "(Katherine) Senior, in particular, is a talent to watch as she manages the difficult doubling of Kitty and the real Donna Lucia with considerable aplomb. 

 

Plays International Magazine “Jack Hulland as Richard and Katherine Senior as Sarah contrive to make every moment sexually charged in the way that the London version is so palpably not. And despite keeping their delivery clipped at all times, the pair avoid the cardinal error of throwing off the opening exchanges like a drawing room comedy.”

 

The Guardian “..this play presents challenges to a small company with a tiny budget and performance space. But Creative Cow face them inventively and with vim. Beer barrels are variously rearranged to suggest a bar or a ship's prow; fight scenes are breathtakingly energetic…..The result is great fun, and exuberantly performed. Highlights include  Katherine Senior as the indomitable Bess”

​

The Stage “In a production that engages and entertains there are many memorable skilfully delineated characters. Katherine Senior’s maliciously smug housekeeper Mrs Sparsit maintains aristocratic bearing and expressions of hauteur and disdain with care.”

 

Remote Goat “Katherine Senior performs a beautifully studied, convincing Alison that invokes shed loadsof audience sympathy, just from the way she stoops under the constant verbal beatings inflicted by her insensitive, arrogant husband. Her patient replies to his unjustified jibes, 'tho' quiet, are clear….a rip-roaring revival of Osborne's first successful play,”

 

Farnham Herald “Katherine’s pain and fear are palpable and her brokenness is heart- rending….riveting”

​

Maidenhead Advertiser "All the cast are superb, particularly Katherine Senior as the real Donna Lucia, her face always mobile, always expressive – and very funny.

 

Arts Beat "Katherine Senior, who doubles as Kitty and the real aunt Donna Lucia, won the audience over with her exquisite expressions 
 

Guildford Dragon "The most memorable performances had to be by both of Charley’s aunts!... Katherine Senior had fantastic comic timing as Charley’s real aunt, who rather awkwardly appears mid-deception."
