Recenzii

A playwright blessed with an exceptionally fine mind
Truly theatrical. Swivels brilliantly between tragedy and farce
A surprising, theatrical, watchable night ends with a whack of seriousness.
Funny and frequently exhilarating piece of theatre.
A brilliantly bold and ferociously intelligent drama about our slippery times.
As tender as it is clever, as incensed as it is inventive. It's a wonderful one-off.
