'I could sing a hundred praises of this superb stage premiere, yet still undersell it. This was peripatetic drama at its best: powerful, involving, sympathetic, touching, inspiring… a community-generated staging of such delicacy, refinement, wisdom and originality that Deborah Warner might have plotted every move.’
