‘…it’s Izabela Wasilewska as Detective Hallaran who nearly walks away with the show. Whether firing off dialogue or reacting silently, she radiates comic skill and stage presence, never missing a beat, never dropping focus. Her performance is magnetic.’
Kitty Goodall – Stage Whispers
‘…protective, dramatic mother (played with brilliant melodrama by Izabela Wasilewska).’
Backstreet Brisbane
‘Also up there for a consistently good portrayal was Izabella Wasilewska in the role of Cherry, the sexual food obsessive.’William Davies – Stage Whispers
