Samuel Miller's Page

BEDTIME SOLOS by Jakob Holder at the Old Red Lion Theatre

"Caps (and not the internal kind) should be well and truly doffed to Scott Christie and Heather Wilds who play the two leads with tough yet vulnerable energy" THE LONDON WORD

"The spoken word glides through the ambience of the auditorium creating passion and substance, inducing thought-provoking dramatisation worthy of commendation as a classic piece of literature… this has to be the most intense piece of theatre I have seen this year" REMOTE GOAT ****

"Intricate shadow play, unfalteringly absorbing performances from Heather Wilds and Scott Christie, and a uniquely poetic script" SCIENCE IS A LIE

"It is a very unique play which I suspect will divide opinion - whatever you think, its power is unquestionable" EXTRA EXTRA

"In this two hander Scott Christie and Heather Wilds offer strong performances as the characters whose names we never know and whose eye colour we never find out. They relish the vivid language and their monologues and duologues are well paced as befitting an evening of passion" BRITIHS THEATRE GUIDE

F***ING MEN by Joe DiPietro at the Kings Head Theatre

"Phil Willmott and Sam Miller's production is seductive yet brisk, blending scenes into one another with atmospheric lighting and music." - THE TIMES (Dominic Maxwell) ****

ASHES by Ali Muriel at the Pleasance Dome, Edinburgh 2007

"Hot, passionate…and a hell of a performance… it was in the depiction of the tortured foursome's humanity that this piece really shone." - THREE WEEKS **** (Seth Ewins)

MACBETH at the Pleasance

"Samuel Miller's production shines its light on Macbeth's remorseless mental disintegration, a treatment that the claustrophobic confines of the Pleasance Studio reward well." - TIME OUT (Lucy Powell)

PARASITES by Ali Muriel at the Edinburgh Fringe 2006

"The very model of a fringe play." - THE STAGE (Gerald Berkowitz)

"Parasites" is a beautifully written and fresh script with an excellent cast .. a genuinely fun experience with brilliant ideas and a rather black humour." - SCENE4 MAGAZINE

SO THIS IS IT? by Leila Borris at the Tabard Theatre

"Samuel Miller's direction is bold enough to focus on the emotional truth of the writing and moves seamlessly through the time-shifts and changes of pace, which is no mean feat.. one of the strongest, most original and freshest pieces of new writing I have seen this year." - BRITISH THEATRE GUIDE (Louise Hill)

GOBSMACK! by Ali Muriel at the White Bear Theatre

"Gobsmack! passes all too quickly, its uproarious and spot-on comedy derived from scatterball situations directed pacily by Samuel Miller… Gobsmack! is well named, leaving the audience astonished and sent away grinning simultaneously." - MUSICOMH.COM (Michael Hubbard)

BLITHE SPIRIT in Harpenden

"The uniformly excellent six-strong cast under the punchy direction of Samuel Miller capture both the frivolity and the looming troubles in the text" - ST ALBANS OBSERVER (Mark Edwards)
