‘An exploration of marriage (the institution), relationships (being married), gender roles, class, mores and more. Each is interwoven into a strong piece of theatre. It works very well. I can certainly recommend it to you’ Buxton Fringe Review
‘The script delivers a properly startling plot swerve together with a few interesting thoughts about the different types of hold we all have over each other. An entertaining eyebrow-raiser, risqué enough to be memorable. I’m glad I gave this one a whirl’ Fringe Guru
‘Simultaneously timely and timeless. All led by a diamond-sharp direction and story structure.’ View from the Gods
‘A wry curtain twitching look at suburban sexuality.’ Broadway Baby
