"Lillian Hellman's drama of gossip and relationships is superbly brought to life in Jess Southwood's imaginative production. The subject matter is strong stuff, which this precociously talented cast takes in its almost dauntingly disciplined stride. Ruth Fowler and Lindsey Carr put neither a foot nor a syllable wrong in their challenging roles, but then neither does anyone else! Liz McGarry is excellent as wilful Mary with her alarming cunning. Holly Turton as the grandmother, Anil Karra, the fiance and Victoria Payne as the slightly daffy aunt are prominent in a company without a flaw." Evening Mail
