Reviews:
"Nick Cassenbaum's play and Emma Jude Harris' direction of it are absolutely masterful, a breakneck, frequently laugh-out-loud caper which turns upon the visceral performances of Gemma Barnett and Dylan Corbett-Bader."
-David Pollock, The Scotsman
"Through its side-splitting humour, rather than didactic politics, the show offers razor-sharp commentary on antisemitism, Jewish representation, and the dangers of mass hysteria. For Jewish leftists still processing the trauma of those years, this might be exactly the release you need."
-Aron Keller, Vashti Media
"Emma Jude Harris’ staging – the work of a Jewish-led creative team – unfolds like a two-person Guy Ritchie film, with Gemma Barnett and Dylan Corbett-Bader both providing outstanding, energetic, shapeshifting performances."
-Fergus Morgan, The Stage
