“Duck is a survivor, ...but she’s vulnerable to the real world which she approaches head-on. Cat, Stephanie Brittain, known to the world as Duck, and Sophie, Philly Howarth, are friends in their late teens. This is a fast-moving play with a lot of short scenes, as we go from one house or flat to another, and to the club itself. It’s well directed and the main actors are good, especially Brittain in the lead role. ...It’s a lively piece, convincingly done” EdinburghGuide.com
