Review | Artshub The Snow
”Otton’s portrayal of Olive is paradoxically understated and heart-stoppingly resonant.”
Review | Fourth Wall Media The Snow
”Otton’s Olive is so loveable”

Review | Suzy Goes See HORSES
”Nathaniel Langworthy and Charlotte Otton are effortlessly comical, with mischievous presences that insist on our mirthful responses.”
Review | Seesaw ALLSTARS
”The show is co-created and directed by prima fringerina Charlotte Otton. It has terrific pace and savvy, and is much enhanced by some superbly constructed and often hilarious multimedia work from Murphy and Otton.”

Review | Artshub The Tempest
”Stand-out performances from Charlotte Otton and Caroline McKenzie see them playing a gender-flipped Stephanie and Trincula.”
Review | Seesaw The Tempest
”Otton is a star of Perth’s thriving independent theatre scene, and this is her main stage debut. Bold, brassy and combustible, she steals every scene foolish enough to let her in.”
Review | Perth Walkabout The Tempest
”My special mention goes to Charlotte Otton, who was not only great as Stephanie, but who also gave us a rendition of “Ring Down Below” in a voice that resonated all the way down to your toes!”

”Special mention must also be made to Otton’s stunning singing voice, as her rendition of the steamy Veronica’s song gave a great oomph to the show’s dénouement.”
Review | The Fourth Wall Perpetual Wake
”Each performer is brilliant. Fowler’s portrayal of the stag is emotionally and hilariously charged and Otton even gets the chance to show off her pipes in a surreal rendition of a country song.”
