Notes to the Play

Recenzii

Laura Wade's play is a 90-minute masterpiece, a jewel, dark but translucent. It is a play of love, death and grief: the grief that is hardest to bear, because it begins before the loved one dies.
Wade's original and beautifully observed play balances raw emotion with a deliciously delicate black humour.
