"Superb stuff, a tremendous performance." John Slim, Birmingham Mail
"Even better was Gareth Bennett-Ryan, who squeezed some great comedy out of the knowing male scenario - some lines clearly resonating with both sexes - much to Bennett-Ryan's credit." Derek Smith, The Stage
"Created a charming and endearing character, drawing in the audience through his love story." Amy De Keyzer, Bury Free Press
"Charming as the gauche young lover." Hugh Homan, The Stage
"Gareth Bennett-Ryan is an engaging Richard Whittington, forthright and true. Pitch perfect vocally and dramatically." Hugh Homan, The Stage
"Well matched with Gareth Bennett-Ryan, they excel both as soloists and in the duets and concerted numbers." Anne Morley-Priestman, Whatsonstage
"Loveable as the slightly dim hero." Mark Beaumont, Bury Free Press
"Gareth Bennett-Ryan as the affable hero, Dick, charms." Glen Pierce, Glens Theatre Reviews
