Recenzii

Infinitely touching...a mature and tender play. [Norris] is an authentic new voice.
Barney Norris's first full-length play is astonishingly accomplished. Norris is a perceptive and humane craftsman...he has created an aching love story. He is a talent to watch.
...an absolute beauty, by turns funny, tender and desperately sad. There is great richness and an almost poetic resonance in the writing so that we can almost see the play of light across their fields and apprehend the jolting dislocation of dementia. It is much harder to write interestingly about happiness than it is about misery, but Norris often does just that.
It's a hefty subject - the way dementia destroys people's minds and families - but Norris's excellent play deals with it with surprising lightness of touch and humour.
A tender, elegiac, beautifully written and observed play
Remember the name Barney Norris. He's outstanding.
Barney Norris's astonishingly accomplished debut.
An absolute beauty, by turns funny, tender and desperately sad.
'Infinitely touching. The real pleasure lies in discovering

an authentic new voice.'
