Synopsis

Road: "A surreal vision of the contemporary urban landscape...uncomfortable and magical, funny and bitter.

It is a northern Under Milk Wood, high on pills and booze" (Sunday Times).

Bed: "Cartwright writes better about old people than anyone I know, except perhaps Beckett.

This is an odd, harrowing and hilarious piece, entirely without sentimentality, sturdy but moving."

(John Peter, Sunday Times) Two: "A sharp, salty quickfire evocation of the surface gaiety and underlying melancholia of English pub life."

(Michael Billington, The Guardian).

The Rise and Fall of Little Voice: "A northern showbiz fairytale, a backstreet Cinderella story, with a built-in kick."

(Guardian)
