Press Reviews

"Frightening, sensual, and moving… Shinn has a delicate touch, combining a well-observed picture of the characters’ lower-middle-class background with a poignant awareness of their stress."

— The Independent

"A haunting, subtly constructed play… [The Coming World] tackles big themes – the nature of truth and love – with a deceptively light touch… Shinn creates a sense of loss and lost opportunities that is deeply affecting."

— The Telegraph
