Media

“Harrowingly truthful” — The Stage

“The playwright’s language, especially in the comic sequences, is vigorous and often delightfully hilarious.” — The Arts Desk

“Lotus Beauty is a poignant look at the human need to fit in – set against the backdrop of racism, sexism, and violence. Its triumph is to create a believable ‘safe space' in which women can talk and share stories – despite their different ages and backgrounds.” — WhatsOnStage
