The critical consensus

In the end this Night does win the audience over.

***(*)(*)Michael Cox, Across the Arts, 04/07/2016

Dick and her ensemble increasingly strike the right balance between such seriousness and the play’s more farcical elements.

***(*)(*)Allan Radcliffe, 30/06/2016

The results are bold, colourful and often very funny.

Mark Brown, Scottish Stage, 30/06/2016

In all, this is a great start to the season. An accessible show with plenty of surprises, guaranteed to please.
