“Max Phythian as Brom delivered some of the best moments. Phythian captivated the audience with confessions of forbidden love and hilarious moments as the duke’s messenger. The was an audible gasp in the room when Phythian removed his shirt, revealing sores from the plague.”

“Max Phythian also shows great versatility as Brom – also mourning Henry’s death, but for secret reasons – as well as an obnoxious minion whose relaying of the royal review of ‘Noah’s Ark’ is hilarious.”
