Review by Jasmine Arden Brown
Shakespeare Up Late
Hamlet/Witch/Mrs King
"Tom Blackmore’s direction harnesses that energy effectively, with Oliver Byng and Mary Jensik providing much of the spark."
"‘Mrs King’ played decadently by Mary Jensik with no shortage of royal raunchiness."
Review By Hugh Simpson
Takin Over The Asylum
Francine
"Mary Jensik played a strong Francine. She nailed the emotional development of the character and allowed the depth of Francine to shine, slowly revealing her story to the audience."‘
Takin’ Over The Asylum’ (Royal Conservatoire of Scotland)
Review by Rebecca Donati.
As You Like It
"Standout performances were many; Mary Jensik in the “male role” of Jacques had remarkable poise and delivery, showcasing a range of emotions that belie her young years."
A Most Likeable (and Youthful) 'As You Like It'Review by Harry Cherkinian
Animal Farm
Napoleon
"Jake Badovski, Mary Jensik and Sydney Salter play the ruling pigs with sympathetic depth. Rather than playing them as sinister villains, the three play the pigs as politicians who really seem to want to believe the lies that they’re telling the rest of the farm"

Pride and Prejudice
Lydia
"As the youngest three siblings, Mary (Paige Bourne), Kitty (Sarah Denke Havey), and Lydia (Mary Jensik) keep the story moving along through gentle sisterly banter. Jensik’s narrations provide particular life to the lengthy story"
Pride, Prejudice, and the path towards love
