"The thing that hits you immediately when reading this play is the wonderful sense of pace that the narrative seems to possess. The story shifts seamlessly between characters and sweeps the reader/audience into the world of the play immediately." Mike Vogler, Head of Drama "The story of Martin and his experiences after a car accident burnt and damaged his face is fast-moving and will be of interest to students reading this in the classroom as a play." Lucy English, Head of English"
