"There is a warm and inviting feel to the production, as if the character generally was chatting to you as she prepared, and the sympathetic and brittle sides of Emily are evoked with skill. As well as the humour, there is considerable pathos, made better by being understated." ⭐⭐⭐⭐
All Edinburgh Theatre
"Jac Wheble is sublime as Benton, bringing out every inch of pathos from a life of wanting to be centre stage. This is a deft play, performed by an actress with wonderful control and understanding." ⭐⭐⭐⭐
