Throughout 2015 I collected reviews of the Stratford Festival and published them on the “Shows” page.

I’ve searched through the data to discover the most critically acclaimed shows.

I went through 111 reviews that were written by professional theatre critics, or established bloggers.

The following three shows received unanimous praise from the professional theatre critics and bloggers. (The amount of reviews each show received was also taken into consideration.)

The Sound of Music

The Adventures of Pericles

The Alchemist

Other shows that received consistent, but not unanimous praise were:
Hamlet
Taming of the Shrew
Love’s Labour’s Lost
The Last Wife

“Sound of Music Stratford” was the most frequently searched term associated with a show.

80% of the traffic to Stratford Festival Reviews was from Canada, 16% from the United States, with the remaining 4% coming from a variety of countries including the U.K., Brazil, Australia, Germany and France.
