"Whatever its uncertainties of tone, I still warmly recommend Oglesby's play for ­recognising that we need to treat the old as human beings rather than statistics."

Michael Billington for The Guardian

"The contrast here between the personal and the political has bite, but there’s a frustrating uncertainty of purpose: is this satire, farce or a poignant danse macabre?"
Henry Hitchings for The Evening Standard

"The transition between satire and passages of deeper feeling make for some awkward dramatic gear changes, but Anna Mackmin’s superbly acted, niftily designed production never loses its grip. "

"Unfortunately, other than its topicality Anna Mackmin's production has dismally little to recommend it. "
Kate Bassett for The Independent

Benedict Nightingale for the Times
