“a striking and funny opening… the drama’s moving exploration of love and loss highlights how preconceptions can crumble. It’s a strong and clear writer’s voice. I hope we hear plenty more of it.”

Mark Braxton, Radio Times

“Gleefully witty and poignant… A triumph, not only for the writer: Weinman and Jarrett also convince with consummate skill… this has just scraped in under the wire, and I can’t tell you how glad I am”

Euan Ferguson, The Observer

“just tremendous…moving and hauntingly confessional. Just when you think it might tumble into mawkishness, though, it beers back to be straight-forwardly funny instead.”

Hugo Rifkind, The Times

“this splendid actress [Parkinson], whose voice and demeanour hover perpetually on the hazy border between tragedy and comedy, proves the ideal fit. A series of three interlinked monologues, it itself veers between the humorous and the quietly shattering.” ★★★★

Fiona Mountford, The i

“poignant and clever debut play”

John Dugdale, The Sunday Times

“a layered and intelligent affair… bittersweet comedy is never far from the surface.”

Gabriel Tate, The Telegraph

“Parkinson delivers her own lines here with a delicate balance where comedy nudges up against melancholy… a moving and mirthful hour” ★★★★

Brian Donaldson, The List
