Critics Review
‘Urgently topical… the execution is exquisite’
* Guardian *‘Ahmed has beautifully taken what we know [the rom-com] and used it to explore a far more complex and searing relationship than I have seen onstage in a long time… nothing short of spectacular… both challenging and cosy at once’
* A Younger Theatre *‘A lyrical journey of connection through inner conflict… a delicious mix of humour, heartbreak and political activism’
* Broadway World *‘A tender romantic comedy incorporating remarkable insights into multicultural Britain… an eye-opening delight’
* The Reviews Hub *‘Deliciously visceral writing’
* The Stage *About The Author
