Review
'The prospect of a new play about the distant past provokes a terrible sinking feeling. You are almost certain to be lumbered with fearful tosh in pseudo-archaic language... In fact this first play by Paul Corcoran... turns out to be a consistently entertaining evening that delivers some startling surprises. He offers historical drama for the Tarantino generation, full of nervous laughter, sudden violence and expletive-laden dialogue that is often outrageously funny... Paul Corcoran looks like a real discovery.' Daily Telegraph
