Emma received critical acclaim for her performance as Anne Boleyn by the Telegraph:"Emma Connell's performance is beguilingly playful, intelligent, graceful, momentarily imperious before her downfall but above all she remains a tantalising enigma. And that's as it should be." May 19 2013.Including a star review in What's On Stage:"Emma Connell is superb as Anne, effortlessly imbuing this complex character with a naivety and ambition that are clearly at odds with each other and a sure sign that Anne's time as queen consort will not end well.""...Emma Connell is the finest actress that I have seen play Anne Boleyn."
