“A funny, biting and chilling comedy about surrogacy and family.”
“Timely, riveting tragicomedy... Superbly played by James Lance and Joshua Silver, Dan and Oliver are all too recognisable.”
“Thompson writes acutely about intimacy and dishonesty... At its best when probing the couple’s differences.”
“Often terrifically entertaining... Knows how to surprise... Juicy, overstuffed... Flawed, but it’s watchable... a fine cast.”
“Flawed and uneven... but nonetheless an enjoyable, thoughtful and ultimately moving.”
“Uncertainty of tone... militates against some of the pleasure of the conflict... Truthful performances... Entertaining moments.”
“A worthwhile muddle and the central relationship is knotty and moving... The writing tightens and deepens in the second half.”
“A brave theme... Pandya draws the pregnant Priya assuredly and vividly.”
“Thompson displays a masterful touch with exposition... Alas, the second act is a misstep... unconvincing and frustrating.”
