'Monsay Whitney is a writer of ferocious honesty, rare imagination and extraordinary humanity. She has the potential to become a startling and significant figure in British Theatre' Simon Stephens
‘Ever had the feeling you’re going round in one big circle? It’s like I can’t stop recycling my ex-boyfriends. Ten years back and forth between a trio of arseholes and nothing to show for it except a baby, an Argos ring and a beat-up nose.’
'A work of ferocious honesty and seething anger'
The Arts Desk'Packs a real punch… an all too believable story about society's underclass today'
British Theatre Guide'[Has] the compassionate anger of a Ken Loach film… a superb piece of writing, bubbling with bitterness yet bursting with heart, simultaneously funny and infuriating'
