Reviews:
Broadway World ★★★★★
Rebecca Birch is hilarious as Beverly, and creates some particularly enjoyable moments with Alice De-Warrenne as the weedy new neighbour Angela, who gets a laugh almost every time she opens her mouth.
The Stage ★★★★
With fashionably flicked hair and an attention-grabbing orange frock, Birch oozes sexuality, upstaging even Bek Palmer’s gloriously gaudy set design.
Theatre, Films & Art Reviews ★★★★
Director Michael Cabot brings together comedy, tempers, and strong sexual tension to the stage through the excellent cast of five.
Winchester Today
A triumph for London Classic Theatre, and one I’ll happily toast with more than one “little top up”. If you’ve seen the play, you’ll know what I mean.
In Common Southampton
Dark, funny and a joy to watch. Like a time capsule from the 1970s with an intriguing, yet uncomfortable reflection on relationships and class in British society.
