Presse : "To sign, or not to sign. That is the question that hangs so urgently over the wavering title character of 'King Charles III,' Mike Bartlett’s flat-out brilliant portrait of a monarchy in crisis, which blazed open on Sunday night at the Music Box Theater." Ben Brantley for New York Times

"Director Rupert Goold’s tight and zestily acted staging provides the play a royal showcase." Joe Dziemianowicz for New York Daily News

"Galvanizing and astonishing, 'King Charles III' doesn’t just send you back to Shakespeare’s histories; it makes you want to write one." David Cote for Time Out New York

"Playwright Mike Bartlett's vibrant and thrilling 'King Charles III' opened Sunday at the Music Box Theatre, borrowing much of The Bard's style and symbols but looking to the near future. It crackles with intrigue and ideas." Mark Kennedy for Associated Press

"King Charles III is written largely in blank verse, which might sound like a cumbersome affectation. But in Rupert Goold's expertly crafted production it hums with the music of conversation and often-heated debate, occasional rhyming couplets and all." David Rooney for The Hollywood Reporter

"A spellbinding performance by the amazing Tim Pigott-Smith." Marilyn Stasio for Variety
