Trade Review
Praise for other works “★★★★ …a story of human emotions, which will strike a chord with any viewer…a dark, stark story that takes you to another world. It is a perfect showcase for brilliant acting for there is no place for error.” London Theatre “….Holyoake’s extraordinary play is spare, uncluttered and unadorned. Its directness is deceptive, creating an immediacy and empathy which powers the drama. One of the impressive aspects of the play is what is left unsaid and unexplained, an object lesson in economical writing…” John Foster “….the play has tapped into contemporary issues surrounding technology and the distance it places between people…” Express and Echo
