"Here is a sensational new author writing with a flowing lyricism which has overtones of Dylan Thomas... The language is both rich and apt, singing in its poetic cadences" ~ Marjorie Bates Murphy, The Stage
"...funny, touching, and real ... The piece breathes the air of a specific region, speaks with its own rhythms..." ~ Martin Hoyle, The Financial Times
