THE BROKEN HEART
Actor | Stage | 2015
Director: Caroline Steinbeis
Role: Amelus / Phulas
Venue: Shakespeare's Globe
"There is outstanding work too from Adam Lawrence who plays two roles: Phulas, servant to Bassanes, a camp, quick-tongued vassal; and Amelus, the staunch, deadly companion to Nearchus. So completely different, and real, are these performances that it is hard to believe Lawrence plays both. He is superb." - British Theatre Guide
HAMLET
Actor | Stage | 2014
Director: Zoe Ford-Burnett
Role: Hamlet
Venue: Riverside Studios
"Lawrence steals the show. He gives a powerhouse performance of emotional turmoil and struggle; his Hamlet is outstanding." - Everything Theatre
"Adam Lawrence, fresh from TV’s hit gangster series, Peaky Blinders, looks like a hungry young Leo DiCaprio as the eponymous prince of the title. He handles most of the key speeches with confidence and has tremendous stage presence. Lawrence is a name to watch for the future." - Stage Review
