Reviews:

” …poses difficult questions about idealism. Is it possible to change the world through ‘good’ deeds?  Nick Le Measurer – Leamington Courier. Friday 9th Feb.

” … a joy to behold – the intensity heightened by the proximity of actors to audience – and Rose and Wait are both superb as they cross swords (or perhaps more accurately scalpel) to reveal their back stories via some devastating home truths.”  Steve Adams – Warwickshire What’s On. Weds 7th Feb.

” There’s great energy and wit to this explosive new piece on as Graeme Rose (Rob) and Matthew Wait (Stu) thrash out their differences and their shared history.”  Muddy Stilettos. Weds 7th Feb.

” …a sustained  full-on, balls-out performance by Graeme Rose (Rob) and Matthew Wait (Stu).” Steve Chilton – Elementary What’s On. Weds 7th Feb.
