Comment is Free & Start Swimming by James Fritz

Comment is Free & Start Swimming by James Fritz

Two plays by award-winning writer James Fritz, each asking urgent, pointed and complex questions of the times we live in.

'Both a caustic critique of contemporary society's treatment of young people and an exploration of the role of language in the perpetuation and justification of the practices under critique'

* Exeunt Magazine on Start Swimming *

'Theatrical and fun.. radiates a puckishness and sense of mischief that mocks control systems even as it articulates their bleakness'

* Time Out on Start Swimming *

'Raw and vivid... a powerful indictment of the situation in which many people find themselves'

* Scotsman on Start Swimming *

'A brilliant piece... It took my breath away'

* Telegraph on Comment is Free *
