Reviews

“And Marita McVeigh moves from dramatic as Dr Charlotte to darkly comic in her second part as a Kafka-esque Care Home manager”

Beth Keehn - Stage Whispers | Read full review

Rounding out this fantastic cast is Marita McVeigh as Dr Charlotte/Retirement Home Director and Nicolas Sayers as Bob. Both McVeigh and Sayers play their roles with grace and ease, doubling as the stage crew; striking and setting the stage at incredible pace. Playing an onstage role and being stage crew at the same time is no easy feat so commendation must be given to both of these actors!
