Reviews

Cotton's dialogue is sharp, funny and sometimes profoundly evocative.
*Financial Times*

This is a compelling and deeply humane production and one I warmly recommend. It is a gripping story, powerfully told and excellently performed.
*Telegraph*

A profoundly powerful new play, Daytona is a gift. Its exceptional premier at the Park Theatre would be a tragedy to miss. Upcoming Oliver Cotton's meaty plot and sharp, witty dialogue make for a poignant drama.
*A Younger Theatre*

A gripping story, powerfully told - What begins as a play about the killing of a Nazi winds up as a deeply moving love story in old age, and in the final scene it transcends words.
*Four stars - Telegraph*

It's a marvellous, moving play not a whit dwarfed by its grandiose new surroundings.
