The characterizations, male and female, are accomplished with deftness and great economy. Using a storytelling approach, the actors eschew surface detail in favour of the essential spirit of the characters…the lines are spoken with a clarity and conviction that make the meaning remarkably transparent.

Denton Chikura is a wonderful clown, playing lovestruck Valentine with an eloquent minimalism of gesture. Tonderai Munyevu, meanwhile, has a delightful comic elasticity of expression and delivers an enchanting rendition of ‘Who Is Sylvia?’ Together they make a fine double act. Robert Shore, Time Out
Whether or not your purse is feeling squeezed, these days, your spirits are almost certainly crying out for what this kind of theatre best provides : the joyous celebration of humanity; stuff you can’t buy. Here it is, on a shoestring: go lap it up. Chris Bearne, remotegoat.co.uk
