As Gwendolen in 'The Importance of Being Earnest', Theatre By The Lake, Keswick

“Amy Humphreys’ reading of Gwendolen Fairfax as a younger version of her mother, Lady Bracknell, is a revelation – too often she is played as a simpering ‘gel’, but not this time.”

Anne Hopper, The Stage

“Amy Humphreys gives Gwendolen the assurance and enthusiasm of one who knows what she wants, and will let nothing stand in her way (just like her mother, Lady Bracknell).

Alison Carter, The Workington Times and Star.

“Amy Humphreys and Krissi Bohn, as love interests Gwendolen and Cecily, make every Wilde line count, and the fast pace of their quick-off-the-cuff remarks make for the perfect bitching spat.”

Karen Morely, The Westmorland Messanger

As Girleen in 'The Lonesome West' at Theatre By The Lake, Keswick

“Amy Humphreys is excellent as Girleen, the peddler of moonshine, revealing the inwardly sensitive teenager beneath the character’s tough exterior.”

Anne Hopper, The Stage.

As Miranda in 'The Collector' at The Underbelly, Edinburgh

'"An intense and compelling piece of theatre, largely thanks to very strong work from Amy Humphreys who skilfully shifts emotional gear from despair to a kind of masochistic flirtatiousness... Humphreys' growing fear and frustration leave a deep impression." 

William McEvoy, The Stage,

As Jackie in 'Hayfever' at York Theatre Royal

"Of the four guests, it is Amy Humphreys as Jackie Coryton who garners the best from her script. She plays the pathetic girl who doesn't know what an adverb is perfectly."

Dave Windass, The Stage.

"Amy Humphreys squeaks and flaps as the father's bit on the side. Blissful."

Quentin Letts, The Daily Mail.

"Amy Humphreys adds comic zest, particularly in the egg-cracking scene. Blissful."

Charles Hutchinson, York Evening Press

As Martha in 'The Secret Garden' at The Tobacco Factory

"Amy Humphreys is wonderfully expressive as Martha, It's no secret there's magic in this garden. "

Metro

"The sensitive playing of the cast is hard to fault. Amy Humphreys is ebullient as Martha, bubbling with sweetness."

Jeremy Kingston, The Times

"A finely-tuned performance from Amy Humphreys as Martha."

Tom Phillips, Venue

As Catherine de Braganza in 'The Ministry of Pleasure' The Theatre 503

"Amy Humphreys and Charlotte Fields give the strongest performances as the King's mistresses."

Ian Johns, The Times

As Ophelia in 'The Hamletmachine' at The Gateway Theatre, Edinburgh

"This is violent and challenging to follow, but what a performance from the cast! The Hamletmachine makes Ophelia the central character and Amy Humphreys plays her with passion,sweat and intensity, though to single out one member of the cast is unfair, as the company moves as a single, committed whole.
