'A smartly playful adaptation that pulses with real passions... it asks big, clever questions about personal agency, authorship and control... Austen would thoroughly approve'
* Evening Standard *
'Moves at a tremendous clip... the wooing is done with such subtlety and good humour'
* The Times *
'An incisive adaptation that approaches the tale from a fresh, contemporary angle... exuberantly, unashamedly silly... Quick-fire scenes jump about in time, skilfully picking apart the narrative with flashbacks that offer new context, or cutting away to asides where the characters debate their real intentions... an appealing, intriguingly flawed protagonist... unexpected and intriguing'
* The Stage *
'A spirited three-hander romp... it's exhilarating, transmuting Austen's daftest novel into something really quite beautiful'
* Time Out *
'A very modern, knowing take, clearly powered by love for the original tale'
* WhatsOnStage *

* TheatreCat *
'Clever, funny and seriously silly... The laughs don't stop... brilliant small-scale theatre'
