Reviews:

This is that genuinely rare beast, a popular comedy with heart, brains and the stomach to make some difficult choices. Sarah Esdaile's production keeps things motoring nicely…

Guardian ***

"haunting" "beautiful"—

The Stage

"intimate and charming...zingy...charmingly quirky"—

Music OMH

"a brisk drama (or brisket drama?) which is a blend of Arnold Wesker and Hollyoaks...Cling To Me Like Ivy certainly clings to the memory. Not a drama that is hair today and gone tomorrow"—
