Miss Beatrix Lehmann’s mingling of hardness and tenderness of ambition and romanticism always seems perfectly right – the times (though review didn’t come up in search)
A play of high interest and a performance by Miss Beatrix Lehmann's of race perception and authentic power – the observer
It was a magnificent part for Beatrix Lehmann and magnificently she played it – evening standard

Alhambra Theatre – The Tudor wench – Elizabeth
“This story of the girlhood of Queen Elizabeth presented a few weeks ago for a short season at the Embassy theatre clearly deserved to be given a fresh chance on a more central stage. If there had been no other reason Miss Beatrix Lehmann’s portrait of the Princess would have sufficed. In this vigorous and perceptive performance are suggestions of many of those qualities, male courage, female evasiveness, strength, cunning, grace and dignity – which even modern biographers can reconcile only with difficulty, so that watching ML we are persuaded no merely by the facial likeness, which is always striking, but by her general attitude to life that this is the kind of girl Elizabeth must have been. … at the end we are tempted to believe that ML has imposed her portrait on the text of the play itself. If indeed she has, it is a piece of great good fortune for the author. … Awkward thought the transition may be, it enable ML to show us Elizabeth turning from a romance that failed her and from the scatterbrained conspiracies of Seymour and his followers to grope for a vision of an England given greatness under her own rule.

Daly’s Theatre – Green Room Rag (on 23)
12 series of these charitable entertainments, It’s shortcomings, however, which were mainly due to the understandable defect of under-rehearsal, were offset by some brilliancies. Among these first place must be given to E.F. Watling’s sketch French as she is learnt, the author has neatly adapted the demure language of the travellers phrasebook to the treatment of a scene of illicit passion. And Mr Edward Chapman, Miss Beatrix Lehmann, Mr Ralph Richardson and Miss Margaret Yarde have captured the precise shade of dress, gesture and intonation that may be supposed to be natural to the natives of phrasebook land.

The Gate Theatre- Various Heavens – review
Beatrice plays Musgrave
Argues in the 3rd act that Beatrice should enter a religious community rather than re-accept her lover. His objection is that adultery is conter to her nature, Clearly an intelligently drawn, .. an attempt to present and discuss. A subject with which men and women outside the theatre are concerned.
The woman whose life is the key is no puppet, she is complex, persuasive and alive, and Miss Beatrix Lehmann’s portrayal of her, which most carefully and rightly avoids conventional display, is a genuinely revealing and progressive interpretation of her mind. … the play is enable to stand by its basic sincerity and by Miss Lehmann’s shrewd and subtle portraiture.

(oddly no ads- perhaps the theatre was too small to afford the times? Or did it close despite the good reviews?)

Q Theatre Charlotte Corday in the French revolution,

Tuesday, Oct 27, 1936 - review
Q Theatre – Charlotte Corday
Role Charlotte Corday
The adventure of Charlotte Corday in assassinating Marat,
Miss Beatrix Lehmann with high intelligence and remarkable restraint gives life to Charlotte Corday within the limits that the dramatist has set. But the play leaves an impression of bareness and crudity, partly because Mr. Klein, in his treatment of the character, is more interested in labels than in analysis, but chiefly because the anecdote is less suited to naturalistic treatment…

Old Vic The witch of Edmonton by Thomas Dekker,
Winifred (2nd wife) – Beatrix Lehmann
It is stamped with sympathy for the outcast and suffering and is able to see always two sides of the human picture – even when the pictures is a villain or a witch… There are two stories connected by the most slender of links, one of Frank Thorney who marries two wives and murders the second; another of Mother Sawyer who sells her soul to the devil in retuf for power, as a witch, to be avenged on her enemies. The devil appears in the form of a gigantic water Spaniel. …
Miss Beatrix Lehmann plays an awkwardly confused part with a successful determination to give it a clear outline

Westminster Theatre Mourning becomes Electra by Eugene O’neill
Lavinia – Beatrix Lehmann
Tale of the Mannon family who live in New England in 1865…how the daughter Lavinia using her brother Orin as her instrument pursued Christine to her death and how at last Lavinia and Orin, haunted by their own guilt and possessed by the spirits of their dead mother and father, were driven into fearful loves and hates, Orin to die by his own hand, Lavinia to live on alone in the house of their doom…
Miss Beatrix Lehmann through Lavinia wear her mother’s dress, cannot grow into a resemblance of Miss Laura Vowie, but by her and by the whole Mannon tribe the difficulty is courageously faced. The perpetuation of an evil and pervasive spirit is communicated… MBL’s performance is a temptation to write an essay, so elaborate is it, so finished in detail, and yet so firmly simple in its outline. There are passages in which it is physically a trifle to rigid; the stiffness of body is intended and has reason behind it, but is carried too far. In all else ML’s study of the beating down of this determined girl by fate – a fate that dwells in her own blood – is of the highest rank. There is a terrible darkness behind its flame, and when the flame is quenced or hidden, it burns by its iciness.

New Theatre (transfer) Mourning becomes Electra - review
The central character, moreover, is not Aeschylus. Mr. O’Neill has concentrated the whole responsibility for the accumulated heritage of pelopid hate, not upon Orestes, but upon Electra, a terrible creation of ice and gall, superbly played by MBL. Where the torment of Orestes in the original proceeds from the pagan idea of pollution, here that of Electra, or Lavinia, derives from the sense of moral guilt and is intensified by the thought that the ineluctable punishment is perpetuation of the sin… In its English representation there is fine acting by Miss Laura Cowie and Mr Robert Harris, while that of Miss Lehmann is of the highest order of brilliance(!)

The study of a woman who still loves, but is no longer loved… it becomes an admirable vehicle for the art of Miss Beatrix Lehmann and her performance at the Westminster theatre last night triumphed over every difficult.

Q Theatre, They walk alone by Max Catto – review
Emmy Baudine – 6th billing (main character)
There is no need to pretend that this is anything else than melodrama and not to be ashamed for having enjoyed it. A girl Emmy (Beatrix Lehmann) comes to a Lincolnshire farm as a servant. She is stragely affected by the playing of organ music in the chapel near by and from that moment onward, is to be watched suspiciously. … soon afterwards young men are found horribly murdered. … Sometimes we see Emmy, breathless from the dog’s pursuit, rush in through the flapping door. She has a power over young men. She has the marks of a dog’s bite on her throat. She is small and frail but has hands and wrists like steel…the play almost continuously commands the stage… But what gives the evening its distincition – and its distinction is that it is exciting – is MBL’s performance. It would no doubt be possible to discover a thousand pathological subtleties in her treatment of Emmy and to claim for the piece an intellectual value within the melodrama, but to do so would be a waste of time. Here is melodramatic material played by an actress of rare imaginative power and played by her for its thrill. She uses her face as a tragic mask sprung to life. She does not hesitate before the uses of the grotesque, she draws fear into her on her fingertips, she employs, as first-rate acting in melodrama must emply, the forces of dramatic hypnosis. Analysis of the play cannot make much of it, but under ML’s spell it has astonishing impact.
