REVIEW EXTRACTS
‘It’s about us, what we see, and what we choose to see… this is a dazzling theatrical experience that lets nobody off the hook, opening our eyes to what should be blindingly obvious: we all have a choice.’ Lyn Gardner, The Guardian (The Author)
‘Created with rigorous, poetic economy… England belongs to that wonderful genre of thoughtful plays that could be discussed for hours without exhausting its ideas.’ New York Times
‘Vividly celebrates the live, raw, communal experience of theatre and the mutual give and take between actors and audience.’ Financial Times (An Oak Tree)
