Review
Sharply funny...wonderfully chaotic. (The Times)
An entertaining follow-up to Nicholls' brilliant debut. (Heat)
I adored "The Understudy". It's a fantastic comedy ... delightfully written. (New Woman)
A zippy comedy with laugh-out-loud lines, grounded on a solid plot and first-rate dialogue...irresistible. (Daily Mail)
