★★★★★ " A masterclass in storytelling" Theatre Weekly

​

★★★★★"Unfolds like an urban epic: its small cast of characters freewheeling through streets and council estates, the fizzing freedom of youth caught against the suffocating constraints of British austerity...it all feels irresistible" Fest Magazine

★★★★ "Playwright Sam Edmunds gives us a teens’-eye view of the town in the 00s with this arresting account of a house party...an eloquent assessment of how fear can result in fury" The Guardian

​

★★★★"Think Steven Berkoff’s East crossed with a grimy, anti-lyrical Under Milkwood and you have something of the flavour of this odyssey into the underbelly of Luton.  Writer Sam Edmunds sees the life burning furiously inside of them." Lyn Gardner, The Stage

★★★★ "Edmunds paints a vivid picture of the limiting factors on the lives of working-class men, the grinding sense of debt that is passed down from generation to generation, the violence they encounter and have to live with on the street..it's exhilarating" What's On Stage
