    • 2016 January 5, Seth Colter Walls, “Les Pêcheurs de Perles review – inconsistently ravishing”, in The Guardian:
      It can start to feel like Woolcock is on the the[sic] verge of making Les Pêcheurs de Perles feel contemporary, and profound. But in the end, she doesn’t have a trick up her sleeve that can fix the jagged, plot-twisty ending (long judged implausible, even by operatic standards).
