Sne tager trods sit meget konkrete afsæt i 2010 fat i en mere generel agenda end krønikens foregående dele, men formår at bringe fortid og nutid sammen gennem de underjordiskes indgriben i menneskets omgang med naturen.

Sådan føjer klimakrise, magi og parforholdets almindelige tristesse i matchende pyjamasser sig sammen i Rhea Lemans lidt altmodische, men repliksikre manus, som hun selv har iscenesat med god sans for en dynamik, der strækker fra slapstick til spooky underlighed.

BORNHOLMS TIDENDE
Alle, der holder af teater, bør unde sig selv at opleve SNE på Rønne Theater. Forestillingen er en rigtig god oplevelse, der løfter og styrker vores bornholmske kultur. Premieren forløb med hele fire runder klapsalver og stående bifald, så der er noget at glæde sig til.

… et dristigt forsøg på at bryde med den realisme, der i al for høj grad får lov til at dominere i ny dansk dramatik.

NORDJYSKE AVIS
In a link between their life story, dramatic freedom and fiction, this newly written dream play has found its form. Lønstrup forms the framework, and the story is woven together across people, events and generations during the 20th century.

Rhea Leman has written Lønstrup Ladies inspired by two women who lived in a small semi-detached house in Lønstrup and both lived for over 90 years. The two women, Mie Lauritzen and Hanne Berendt, lived in the small semi-detached house in Lønstrup.

INFORMATION NEWS
The stage space ready for adaptation and empathy supports the dramaturgical structure in Leman’s text and Rosenbaum’s staging, which wisely borrows from the narrative technical fragmentation of the film medium in the narrative structure of the performance, so that 100 years of female destiny narrative never falls on the empathetic barometer – despite the duration of two hours.

KULTURKUPEEN ****
Everyone does well in “Lønstrup Ladies”. The text also requires an extra effort to redeem, because playwright Rhea Leman has not only created countless female characters: Grethe, Ruth, Liv, Agnes, Ingeborg and Thyra, who also move around in time and place.
Another interesting and very well played story drawn from local life in Vendsyssel: “Lønstrup Ladies”.

Information (The Information News)
”Rhea Leman’s text is nothing less than outstanding.”

Weekendavisen (Weekend News)  
”ARENDT – to see in darkness is a radiant portrait of one of the most essential personalities in the 20th century.” “Effortless and fascinating theatre.”

Politiken****  (Politiken News)
“Imagine people pouring in to see theatre about the Jewish philosopher Hannah Arendt!  Probably a sign of the need to get a helping hand to understand the actual turbulence now where the tectonic plates of history are beginning to rock under us”

Århus Stiftende (Århus News) 
“’Arendt’ is excellent and thought-provoking theatre”. 
“Arendt – to see in the dark” is an extremely contemporary performance that, with humanity and hope in focus, explores how Nazism and other totalitarian dictatorships can arise.

Cph.Culture ****** (Copenhagen Culture) 
“Rhea Leman’s latest play ARENDT, not only stands out as her most ambitious, but also as her most enriching.” 

Kulturkupeen ****** (The Cultural Coup) 
”Based on the female philosopher Hannah Arendt, Rhea Leman has written a play that is to that extent stripped of redundant side actions and yet saturated in the description of a strong woman who had to flee from Nazism in 1933 and subsequently suffer in France when the Germans came, while she, like many other Jewish refugees in the United States, finally found sanctuary.”
”Arendt ought to be seen by as many as possible because when have we last had such a thoughtful theatre experience so very hard to shake?”

Kjerteminde Avis ****** (Kjerteminde News) 
“Rhea Leman’s dramatization of Hannah Arendt’s life is excellent, … a small stroke of genius”

Sceneblog *****  
”Beautifully thought out portrait of the philosopher Hannah Arendt, where Ina-Miriam Rosenbaum, in a gigantic performance, is soaring through time and space in historical fiction by Rhea Leman.”

Ungt teater blod ***** (Young Theater Blood) 
”Playwright Rhea Leman not only tells about Hannah Arendt’s life but also includes her philosophical work and theories. This results in an exciting and different narrative that is equal parts historical, dramatic, and intellectual. Thus, it is beautifully shown how Arendt’s own experiences have created the fertile ground for her theoretical work.”

”ARENDT – to see in darkness is a magnificent and riveting piece of drama, both entertaining and food for thought. It is a performance that wants to grasp a hold of us.”

Scenekanten ***** (The Scene’s Edge) 
A wonderfully humanizing portrayal of an esteemed philosophical persona who very few people know as a human being. … An important person and history, not least in times like these.
