Mark Shenton, The Stage
Opera Soufflé
Langham Hilton Hotel, Regent Street, London - October 2003
"After the tremendous success... we had no choice but to ask them to return for another date, due to the number of requests from guests. A tremendous evening and one which we will continue to hold."
Armin Schroecker, General Manager
Sondheim Songbook
Theatre Museum, London - July 13th 2003
"The final event of the weekend was a very worthy sucessor to all that had gone before...The show started with a spell-binding rendition of 'Giants In The Sky' sung by Stephen...The mood changed with Stephen's soulful 'Not While I'm Around' ... The finale was sung with great passion by both Kirsty and Stephen. Though the audience cheered and begged for more, the evening had sadly come to an end."
Mandy Dixon - Stephen Sondheim Society 'Sondheim News'
Abelard & Heloise
Newcastle, Australia - October 2002
"...naturally enough the lyrical passages for the lovers are very effective - and were splendidly performed on this occassion by Stephen Weller (Abelard) and Sue Carson (Heloise)..."
David Gyger, Opera Opera
Abelard & Heloise
Newcastle, Australia - October 14th 2002
"...Abelard is a difficult role...(it) needs to be played by someone who is dashing, yet able to keep the audience on side and make it understand his dilemma after the loss of grace. Weller does that and is especially superb in the long solo "I Am Sure". There is great beauty in the sad refelction of his late Act II song "I Gave Myself To Human Loving"...Carson and Weller make beautiful music together in their declaration of love...
Ken Longworth, Newcastle Herald

Andi Reiss, Daily Info, Oxford
Martin Guerre
Web review - 1999
"...I absolutely love the emotion that Stephen has in his voice as Martin. I'm especially impressed with his anger - it's hard to *sing* anger - you often end up just shouting. But he does a very good job.."
Stacy, Theatre-Musical.com
Martin Guerre
Apollo Theatre, Oxford - June 1999
"But the story is not the main feature in this show - it is the music and the incredible, athletic singing of the entire cast. I have never seen a show with such universally strong voices ... most memorable perhaps [are] the all-r
ound excellence of Stephen Weller's Martin Guerre."
Fleur Kinson, Theatre Review, Oxford
Martin Guerre
West Yorkshire Playhouse, Leeds - December, 1998
"...the central trio of roles are sung strongly by Matthew Cammelle (Arnaud), Stephen Weller (Martin) and...Joanna Riding as Bertrande."
Ian Shuttleworth, Financial Times
Martin Guerre
Theatre Royal, Newcastle - February 1999
"The cast is, unsurprisingly, of a very high standard. The three leads, Arnaud (Matthew Cammelle), Martin (Stephen Weller) and Bertrande (Joanna Riding) interact well, and the duets between them, and the one scene that unites all three, are among the best in the show."
Calamity Jane (Musical Director)
Civic Theatre, Chelmsford - July 20th 2000
"Musical Director Steven (sic) Weller solved the problem with The Deadwood Band creating a rich, full sound beyond it's modest size..."
Jim Hutchon, Chelmsford Weekly News
