I don't go to many plays, but went to this on a recommendation of a friend. It was brilliantly presented and very thought provoking. Very fast moving, both in plot and physically (you'll see what I mean when you go to see it!). In parts, towards the end, it was very emotional. David Shields, the lead actor was brilliant, as was Julie Hesmondhalgh, who played Joan, the victim's mother. That said, all the cast deserve massive plaudits for the bewildering number of costume and role changes!

Excellent play in all ways: well-written, extremely well acted and deals with sensitive and controversial issues in a nuanced way. It is both hard hitting and inspirational

Powerful, true story, very well written and acted. First half was a bit repetitive and too long. Second half was gripping and very moving. Will highly recommend.

Powerful. I learnt something. Well worth the cost and effort. Recommend to others like me who generally prefer entertainment to plays with a serious message.

An amazing story of tragedy, forgiveness and redemption and so incredibly well-acted. The young man who played Jacob was absolutely amazing. One of the best plays I’ve ever seen. Go!

Accents were a bit difficult to understand. Second half better to understand as spoken at a slower pace
