Rebecca's Izzy played with 'real vibrancy' in Seminar at Hampstead Theatre "The acting affords constant pleasure" - The Guardian

The Times Newspaper 'Seminar' at Hampstead Theatre directed by Terry Johnson and written by creator of NBC's 'Smash' series, Tersesa Rebeck has received several four star reviews in National newspapers. Rebecca also had a chance to get in touch with her wild side to play sex-kitten 'Izzy' who would almost do anything to become a successful writer. Rebecca found it a true pleasure working with Roger Allam as well as being directed by such a stellar director as Terry Johnson.  By Angel Harris SuperPR

The Independent ★ ★ ★ ★ "Beautifully adumbrated by the young cast." The Stage ★ ★ ★ ★ "The Hampstead unearths a US gem with Terry Johnson’s finely judged production of Theresa Rebeck’s Broadway hit about the perils and joys of wanting to be a writer" The Public Reviews ★ ★ ★ ★ "At times touching and always witty, it is a superb laugh-out-loud comedy that will surprise you." Everything Theatre ★ ★ ★ ★ "It gives us a credibly happy ending, and five great performances; the four younger actors held their own admirably in the face of Allam’s tour de force. The Huffington Post - "Sex-kitten Izzy is played with real vibrancy by Rebecca Grant" "you'll enjoy the fact that you'll bear witness to some superb acting" "But immense credit must also go to the four actors who play his students - Bryan Dick, Charity Wakefield, Rebecca Grant and Oliver Hembrough." The Guardian - "The acting affords constant pleasure" The Art Desk - "Rebecca Grant’s effortlessly sexy Izzy. They all contribute to making an enjoyable evening" London Theatre Guide - "But if Roger Allam is an actor one could watch reading the telephone directory, here it is a wonder to see him making this horrible man seem credible. The quartet of actors as the young writers enduring his masterclass are equally compelling.

British Theatre Guide

"Rebecca Grant is the beautiful Kamana Aouda who catches Fogg's eye and imagination.

Joyous and hugely entertaining production"

Staffordshire Life

"Glorious! That’s the first word that comes to mind but you could also add fabulous, clever – very clever, engaging, memorable and incredibly imaginative!

Rebecca Grant, as the beautiful Kamana, is a delight to watch as she joins in the mad antics of her companions with zest and passion, and as she goes from essentially death row to radiant bride!"

Virtual Shropshire

"Amongst the new recruits for this welcome re-run is Rebecca Grant who plays the poignant princess with such poise, dignity and charm I was actually willing Fogg to pop the question before she does. She’s all wide eyed and wondrous at her suddenly changing circumstances, as her earnest heart works on Fogg’s stiff upper lip…melting his logic, drip by drip."
