what critics & peers have said

"DONE BRILLIANTLY IN THE WORST POSSIBLE TASTE. FOUR STARS." - BEN WALTERS, THE SCOTSMAN, ON THE FABULOUS PUNCH & JUDY SHOW, EDINBURGH FRINGE, 2015

BULL: WINNER - BEST INDEPENDENT DRAMA 2015, SYDNEY ARTS GUIDE

“Mike Bartlett’s Bull is compact, relentless and brutal. Bartz is mesmerising …  George Kemp was outstanding… It’s wonderful that we’re getting works like this in Sydney. Mike Bartlett is a fantastic playwright who has an incredible ability to write darkly funny dialogue. His characters are a dream for actors to play, and under the directorial hand of Rowan Greaves, all involved in this production did it justice.” Alana Kaye – Theatre Now 2015

"this production from rowan greaves has some standout performances, strong ensemble work and a rough, gutsy energy that carries it through beautifully" - stephen dunne, smh on don's party by david williamson, 1997

"BOLDLY CONCEIVED AND DIRECTED BY ROWAN GREAVES." BOB EVANS, SMH ON "THE NATURE AND PURPOSE OF THE UNIVERSE" BY CHRISTOPHER DURANG, 1985

"DIRECTOR ROWAN GREAVES SEEMS TO BE ONE OF THAT RARE, DELICATE YET INVALUABLE BREED OF ARTISTS THAT SEEKS, MOTH-LIKE, THE BRIGHTEST, MOST INTANGIBLE LIGHT. HE POSSESSES A PUCKISH PENCHANT FOR FREE-WHEELING FLIGHTS OF FANCY AND RELISHES CHARMS THAT TRANSFORM WHAT IS INTO WHAT MIGHT BE" - PAUL JOHNSON, THE NORTHERN STAR, 1990

"JUDGING BY THE RESPONSE OF STAFF AND STUDENTS AND
FROM MY OWN OBSERVATION, ROWAN PERFORMED HIS DUTIES MOST ADMIRABLY:
CONDUCTING DRAMA WORKSHOPS WHICH ENGAGED AND CHALLENGED
EVEN THE MOST PROBLEMATIC STUDENTS, AND DELIVERING LECTURES
HAILED AS NOT-TO-BE-MISSED EVENTS." LYNDON TERRACINI, UNE, 1991

"ROWAN'S PRODUCTIONS ARE INFORMED BY AN EXTRAORDINARY DYNAMISM
AND UNUSUAL IMAGINATION. HE UNDERSTANDS THAT THE DIRECTOR
AND ACTORS' FIRST RESPONSIBILITY IS NOT TO BORE THE AUDIENCE. 
HIS WORKS ALWAYS SURPRISE... HIS CHOICE OF REPERTOIRE
IS UNCONVENTIONAL AND GUARANTEED TO ENTERTAIN
AND PROVOKE DISCUSSION." GEORGE WHALEY,
FORMERLY HEAD OF ACTING (NIDA) & DIRECTING (AFTRS), 2008
