Matt Wolf who wrote this review for the International Herlad Tribune, described JJ in that one; "the newcomer JJ Feild has the physical dash if not quite the voice for
a daunting double task that needs to look lighter than air". He wrote another review for Theatre News Online where he also reported on JJ's performance and mentions the slide...

"Inheriting Paul Scofield's original role as twin brothers - one nasty (Hugo), the other nice (Frederic) - newcomer JJ Feild is at his best in an eleventh-hour rant from a brusquely impassioned Hugo perched atop a chair, just as Leigh Lawson, in an especially well-accented turn, does well by the mixture of self-loathing and seigneurial disdain that marks out his performance as the play's resident Jew: a peculiarly written part by contemporary standards that casts the moneyman Messerschmann as billionaire at notable odds with the wealth he has accrued in this lamentable world. Feild, for his part, sounds from some gathering hoarseness as if he is going to have to guard his voice, though audiences may prefer just to look and point out his similarities not only to Jude Law but, less obviously,to a young Alec Guinness. As far as differentiating the two men, he achieves that by clever uses of the assured glide with which he slides on to the stage as Hugo, by contrast with the wimpy, winsome Frederic."
