Media Reviews
""It is the cool, calm objectivity of this documentary drama that makes it so powerful and shocking - The British theatre - indeed, every Briton - should be proud of this play." - Sunday Times "shocking and often deeply moving" - Daily Telegraph This is politically motivated theatre of a serious, noble sort. I left the theatre in a blaze of anger, shame and sadness." - Evening Standard "
