Reviews for Snowbound

Critic's Choice - The Independent

Wonderfully affecting, funny and compelling.' ****  Whatsonstage.com

'Snowbound is a touching, emotionally astute piece of work, aided by splendid performances .. in Samantha Potter's affecting production.' Paul Taylor, The Independent

'Ciaran McConville’s delicate play .. Samantha Potter’s sensitive, well-acted production .. Kerry Bradley’s fine design - you can’t help but be moved.'  Time Out

 

'This is lucid, important theatre.

The Scotsman – August 2004

'Ciaran McConville's script is as comical as it is haunting, maintaining a perfect balance of humour and urgency throughout ... the production couldn't get any better.'

Time Out, May 2003  

'What is it to be human? Debut Theatre's searing, visceral production truly does justice to Orwell's masterpiece about the destruction of the human spirit.'

Venue Magazine, August 2004

‘The great joy of the Festival is discovering groups and writers you’d not come across before. Funny, touching and riotously inventive, this tautly scripted, superbly performed gem was head and shoulders above many big name, big budget productions elsewhere in the Festival. The company are clearly names to watch.’

The Irish Post - August 2002

‘Thirty seconds into this production, I could feel the tension in my shoulders loosen, the corners of my mouth upturn into a half-smile and my every muscle relax, secure in the knowledge that I was in the presence of accomplished performers who were going to enchant me with their fairytale, without a single line-fluff, a glimpse of over-acting or self indulgence.’
