"It's small wonder that the Oran Mor audience, after a short, stunned silence, begin to stamp and roar in applause; startled to find that they have journeyed through all the pain and catharsis of a real tragic drama, in the space of a lunch-hour." The Scotsman.
David Greig's beautiful little maybe love story begins full of awkward comic charm ...near perfect miniature tale of ordinary madness nuanced with delicate slivers of light and shade.laughing might just turn to crying any minute. The Herald

". spontaneous applause and whoops of delight greet an opening performance. the response on Monday at lunchtime to Deirdre Kinahan's gloriously life-affirming two-hander .this short, bittersweet and hugely affecting little drama is worth travelling to see. sincerity triumphs over cynicism in a scene that must be seen to be believed, and to which words could never do justice. Then a killer combination of dialogue and gesture brings the play to an abrupt yet quietly optimistic close, leaving the gobsmacked audience reeling." The Herald.
