Reviews
"A tantalising tale of tangled relationships... kept me hooked for 80 minutes and shows a distinctly edgy promise."
- Guardian
"A psychological thriller without lacking originality... distinctive and involving."
- Exeunt Magazine
"Very much a play about personal trauma, but incorporates much in the way of character-driven humour... well and truly cements the fact that Webber is a writer to watch out for, and one who promises an exciting future."
