Strangers in Between

'A wise and witty coming-of-age play about facing fears, about friendships forged across across the generations, and about making your own surrogate family. The tone combines the sharp and the sweet, the charmingly funny, the slightly rose-tinted and the completely explicit… Murphy gives all of his characters hidden depths'

'Tugs the heartstrings as well as constantly jolting the funny bone… Tommy Murphy's exquisitely written play has a bewitching charm, poetry, subtle and sometimes shocking twists, honesty, insight, great depth and terrific one-liners'

'An earnest and thought-provoking story of loneliness and uncertainty'

'Funny, moving and surprising… Tommy Murphy's script is brilliant: Miller-esque in its seemingly banal conversations and relative lack of action, but it is this that allows for well-rounded and believable characters'

'One of the most beautifully written, achingly honest, and devastating insights into the life of a person growing up in a world that refuses to understand who that person truly is. Full of hope, raucous ribaldry, and sweet, tender moments of connection... Absolutely unmissable.

'Dangerous, seamlessly crafted, this is a beautiful work and a hopeful antidote to the climate of fear in which we live'

'Bitter and sweet and replete with raw emotion… entertaining and forceful'
