Recenzii

A funny and poignant play. All parents agonise about educational choices for their children. For Black and Diaspora parents, race and culture make the decision-making even more complex.
Honest, simple and enthralling - What makes this play incredible, is not only the humour that runs throughout, but the real life portrayal of relationships - absolutely brilliant
It's firecracker theatre that, in places, is as touching as is it hilarious.
A lively soap opera of family dramas and bubbling resentments which touch on issues of identity, heritage, mothering and the motherland - Pandora's Box buzzes with life and the tensions of real people.
