“Ken Harmon is a very good writer…Jimmy Fay’s direction is very good indeed…it’s great to see a theatre company making commitments to writers they believe in.”

“A colourful, macho satire in which everyone is endemically criminalized.”
- The Guardian
“A piece of theatre whose swagger and humour belie its gentle compassion and sharp intelligence.”
