The Trench – Les Enfants Terribles Theatre Company
This darkly beautiful myth of the First World War echoes the look of a Topolski drawing: scarred and blackened and jagged and cramped, with the odd gleam of lanterns… the overall vision stays with you like a strange, significant dream…Burt, the protagonist, played by Ben Warwick, has a soul filled with anguish”
✮✮✮✮ THE TIMES
Les Enfants Terribles march into town with their breathtaking production, The Trench and knock spots off so many festival offerings. This extraordinary show is so beautifully realised that it’s hard to know where to start
✮✮✮✮✮ THE SUNDAY TIMES
Frankenstein – Blackeyed Theatre
“Ben Warwick as Victor Frankenstein is a sensation. Arriving disheveled and broken he tells his tale as a warning. We see his ambition, his thirst for knowledge, his moment of creation. His eyes flash with excitement and therein lies one of Shelley’s greatest questions – is Frankenstein a genius, or a maniac?”
“Ben Warwick as Victor Frankenstein is quite spellbinding. We seem him flit from obsession to insanity, to spells of happiness and euphoria and then back. It is exhilarating to watch.”
"Intensely interesting and original, with strokes of real power… Ben Warwick gives a glittering performance as anguished Victor Frankenstein”
THE TIMES
“Ben Warwick’s portrayal of Frankenstein’s growing psychosis and self-destruction is never over-played. His mercurial energy never wavers throughout the many stages leading to Frankenstein’s inevitable cataclysmic end and the production benefits greatly from such a robust performer its central role.”
“There are two obvious essentials for a successful production – Victor Frankenstein himself and his Creature. Ben Warwick is a commanding presence as Frankenstein, playing the deity-defying scientist with a gripping, ever-increasing intensity as his life unravels…the production is powered by the electricity of Warwick’s central performance.”

As Sergius in Arms And The Man – Orange Tree Theatre
“Ben Warwick is wonderfully absurd as the moustachioed Sergius, posturing as a romantic hero and impeccable lover, all the while harbouring unworthy intentions” FINANCIAL TIMES
“Ben Warwick’s glorious Sergius is all fire and fervour” Michael Billington in THE GUARDIAN

As Rochester in Jane Eyre
“A near perfect production. Illuminating and beautiful. Warwick’s Rochester is both true to type and revelatory – intelligent, brooding, hurting and flawed.” ★★★★
