'Hutchinson illuminates the darker sides [of the Irish question] and writes with a spry humour that crashes through the notorious English indifference to the troubles over the water...

Guardian<BR><BR>'Crudely beautiful and passionate... Hutchinson holds us not only through the means of suspence, the fascination of watching all these men play cat and mouse with one another, but through a passionate advocacy of language as a means of getting at the truth.' New Statesman<BR><BR>'A steaming lava of words that pour down on everything and everyone to do with the Northern Ireland conflict.' Sunday Telegraph.<BR><BR>'An electric jolt of a play.'
