As expected in a Merchant/Ivory film. The acting is terrific across the board. And Susie Lindeman is funny is the dim Dolly.

Six Characters In Search Of An Author , Sydney Opera House

Harry Kippax
 
“...the undoubted triumph is Susie Lindeman’s performance...a tremulous lucidity”
“...a waif-like grace  
Bob Evans

Winter

"Susie Lindeman’s performance is suitably quirky, creating a refreshing character with an intriguing allure. Qualities of desperation and desire are beautifully conveyed. Lindeman introduces a vulnerability that gives the story complexity, and keeps us engaged"
SuzyGoessee
 
“Beautiful…perfectly cast, Lindeman using her body as a piece of art.. Inner storms conveyed with delicacy and precision” Lisa Thatcher

Ruth in Cosi

"Wonderful performances particularly from Susie Lindeman as an enchantingly unhinged Ruth."
Charlotte Valori Theatrecat 
 
"Susie Lindeman’s fragile, utterly loony Ruth was pitch-perfect. Queen of the OCD, but timid to the point of hysteria, Ruth is unpredictable and slightly frightening as a result. Lindeman invests such heart and openness in the character that this Ruth, as lost as a bottle in the ocean, is staggeringly delightful – it is impossible not to root for her"
LiveTheatreUK

Hilda 

“Tres chic, tres elegant, tres francais, 
Susie Lindeman as Mme Lemarchand is terrific. 
A desperately kittenish French Blanche du Bois”

Kafka in Love

“Susie Lindeman gives a wonderfully varied performance. Her slight figure lends pathos to her courage, while her mobile expressive features show us all the suffering and tolerant affection required of a woman who is trying to rescue Kafka from his sexual trauma. She is completely convincing”
Evening Standard 
 
Susie Lindeman’s Dora, tremulous yet tenacious, literally compels our belief in her saving love” 
Guardian
 
“’Dora’ gets a bewitching performance from Susie Lindeman who can  take care of herself in comedy”
Telegraph 


Persephone
“Lindeman performs on a high edge of grief, like an Ophelia whose mind has been peeled, turned inside out for the forces of nature” 
Sydney Morning Herald

​Happy as Larry and Viv
 
“Lindeman gives a dazzling performance, with all the requisite fragility, sexuality, flaring anger and abiding fragility of the real Viv” Telegraph 
 
Lindeman’s Viv is magnetic, as she ranges back and forth from hungry sex kitten to angry diva on the verge of a nervous breakdown”
SMH Metro 
 
“Fascinating. Lindeman is superb as Leigh, deftly conjuring up the public image of the star in a series of feverish gestures and inflections that also manage to convey a deeper passion and frailty”
The Australian 

Susie Lindeman as Vivien Leigh.
​Audience acclaim:


""You are a genius! It really was like watching Miss Leigh in action. I was transported. I loved every minute of it- a superlative embodiment of her."

"The performance was stunning. I have been obsessed with Vivien Leigh for a long time, and today I felt as though I had really seen her!"

Her way of speaking, every mannerism and gesture, were done so well that it was as if Vivien Leigh herself was there in stage.  As we know, Vivien Leigh was a brilliant and spellbinding actress, so to be able to portray her so well is a great achievement"
 

"I was afraid of watching Letter to Larry. When I read "she is Vivien on the stage" - I didn't believe it. Nobody can be Vivien! But it was true. Susie's gestures, essence, voice - same as Vivien's. The illusion was perfect. I had a feeling I was watching Vivien. Thank you for that!"
 "
Wonderful play and a wonderful actress - congratulations to Mr. Macdonald and Susie Lindeman. 

I am very happy that I bought my ticket for this magic performance,that was so very emotional. I shall be thinking about it tonight and also for very long time. Susie you made me believe that we were actually seeing Vivien....
