Reviews
A show with something to say, and a stylish way of saying it. * The Stage (on High Rise Estate of Mind) *
If there were thousands more like Murray who managed to 'breakthrough' from a working class background to the mainstream Arts, the landscape would be very different to what it is today. * Breaking the Fourth Wall *
Its dramatic authenticity is pitch perfect. * Exeunt *
