Posh
"With ten characters in the mix, playwright Laura Wade, by necessity, has chosen only a handful on whom to concentrate. And while each has his revelatory moments, a few, such as Tom Mison, as James, the Riot Club’s president, David Dawson as their resident gay poet (deliciously named Hugo Fraser-Tyrwhitt), Henry Lloyd-Hughes as Dimitri, a Greek by name but an English toff by nature, and most memorable of all, Leo Bill as the group’s repellently outspoken (and violent) member Alastair, make the most impact."

When The Rain Stops Falling
"There are glowing performances from Tom Mison as Gabriel, Phoebe Nicholls and Lisa Dillon as his mother's older and younger selves and Jonathan Cullen as the disappearing father." Guardian Feb 2009
Hedda
"Even better is Mison, whose every awkward, well-meaning move shows a man destined for permanent unease in his own home. He is rapidly emerging as one of the finest young actors around." Evening Standard Sept 2008
"Among the supporting cast, Tom Mison memorably captures the fussy, second-rate nature of Hedda's despised husband" Telegraph Sept 2008
"Horgan is backed by a superb cast. Tom Mison is excellent, in what is a particularly difficult role, as George, Hedda's husband. He is amiably nerdy and clearly in thrall to his new wife but not completely passive and you can see why she may once have been, briefly, drawn to him." MusicOMH Sept 2008
Tom Mison’s ingenuous, bumbling George is excellent too, and often funny. His straightforward cheerfulness is ridiculous whenever Hedda is around and he has thought up some hilarious body language to make the most of this. Notes from the Underground
The Unknown Soldier
"Tom Mison inhabits the soldier first and with the greatest success: the contrast between Mison’s scared but compelling soldier and his robust reporter only strengthens his performance. He acts with a permanent twinkle and is quick to charm his audience – a trick the other actors would do well to take on." Culture Wars Feb 2008
"Tom Mison is dashingly droll as the journalist who turns the unknown soldier into a careerist campaign, and then, having shown no interest in the truth, comes close to identifying him." Independent Feb 2008
"Tom Mison is terrific as the ambitious and almost mischievous journalist more interested, at least initially, in how the soldier's story can advance his career." British Theatre Guide Feb 2008
Les Enfants du Paradis
"Tom Mison has great fun as the irrepressible Frédérick, who views donning a lion costume as just another step en route to his rightful starring role as the Moor. His turn as a jaunty harlequin in ridiculous black tights is particularly memorable. This is an actor we'll be hearing of again." Evening Standard Dec 2006
"As her (thematically) rival suitors, the handsome and talented Tom Mison is both wittily narcissistic and movingly honest in the role of the philandering star of melodrama" Independent Dec 2006
