Comments from independent adjudicators:

' …a superior, well-crafted play penned with panache and humility, which builds to a stunning conclusion.... sure to make a riveting piece of theatre...' A Way to Mandalay

' …the flow of dialogue is very impressive indeed…splendid characters… Harold is delicious… switch of time and character is one of its great strengths…an underlying pathetic quality behind the humour that I found most appealing…manifests itself effectively in the dénouement…' No Concessions

'…beautifully drawn characters and splendid variation in emotional attack ….The pace of the dialogue is quite breathtaking….I'm sure there are many societies that would welcome the opportunity to tackle such a fine piece of dramatic work.' Innocent Eve

'Delightful…beautifully comic…a highly successful ending… a fine piece of theatre' Baggage
