‘Lewis Cornay has the expressively elfin looks of a young Eddie Redmayne and the talent to match.’- The Guardian
‘Lewis Cornay’s relentlessly optimistic SpongeBob dominates the show. His voice is a wonder… A star in Cornay’- The Stage
‘Lewis Cornay as Posner is certainly one to watch, with a gorgeous singing voice and total command of the audience.’- Broadway World
‘In an exceptional performance, Cornay easily differentiates his two characters, on top of playing them at various ages. The combined fire-power of Tucker and Cornay alone make John & Jen worth the ticket price.’- Theatre Weekly
‘Lewis Cornay is a delight. The extended opening night applause after “(Not a) Simple Sponge” is completely warranted; Cornay’s belting, wide-ranging voice is excellent.’- The Independent
‘Cornay is the clear star of the show as Posner. He brings real wit and pathos to the part, soulful eyes staring entreatingly out at the audience.’- Plays to see
‘A tour-de-force performance with impeccable comic timing. There really was nothing simple about his performance here – in fact, it was rather miraculous’.- All That Dazzles
‘Lewis Cornays voice reveals astonishing depths’- Time Out
