REVIEWS:

"An action-packed evening of laugh-out-loud moments mixed with the raw emotions of a heart shattered into tiny pieces."

 We Are Chester

"If you are fortunate enough to catch a performance of this in future then expect laughter and tears by the bucket load. It’s a hugely moving play, set to an energetic soundtrack of 70s hits, and there are plenty of adrenalin-fuelled twists and turns to keep us audience members on our toes."
