»   REVIEWS

"With Juliet, Follows proves that her talents extend beyond television portrayals of Anne Of Green Gables. Her Juliet seems incredibly young - in the early scenes one can genuinely believe that with her mixture of childlike simplicity and budding adolescence, she really is no more than 13. Yet, if childlike, she is never childish. And from the sweet humor of the early scenes, she moves on to a simple nobility which seems both true to her concept of her character and affecting in its impact."

– Jamie Portman, The Windsor Star



"Follows is a radiant Juliet. Although the 24-year-old actor is performing her first classical role, she all but eclipes Antoni Cimolino's Romeo. Follows' Juliet is a bright, nimble-thinking pragmatist, but it's her directness and purity that come across so powerfully and make her such a fetching innocent."

– Robert Reid, Kitchener-Waterloo Record
