'[Stacy] will blow your socks off.. one of the most entertaining nights I've had at the theatre'

'[Stacy is] a pin-sharp, brilliant piece of work'

* Time Out Critics' Choice *

'A challenging, disturbing and distinctive new voice'

* The Times *

'Jack Thorne is hot... [Fanny and Faggot is] a darkly gripping achievement, probing the most horrifying extremes of human behaviour with compassion and a rigorous moral and intellectual curiosity'

* The Times *
