‘The grotesques carry the day …
Above all Timothy Walker’s City Gent of a Corvino. Mr. Walker gives an impeccable demonstration of high, stylised farce, cawing and shrieking, loping and mincing, snarling and prancing, the epitome of the Renaissance ideal of energy contained, extravagance disciplined by form. This is a truly Jonsonian performance.’
Financial Times

‘Nicholas Hytner’s strikingly intelligent production of Volpone … Savagely funny, thanks especially to Timothy Walker who plays the paranoid Corvino as a frenzied, grimacing cross between Basil Fawlty and Arturo Ui.’
The Independent
