‘Alan Ayckbourn for millennials’, ‘a sparky evening, stylishly delivered’
- Lyn Gardner, The Guardian
‘Strong performances make this production zing — the young foursome pop with the vitality of Barnes’s dialogue’. ‘Barnes’s comedy also recalls Neil LaBute at his best.’
- Kate Maltby, The Times
‘This contemporary drawing room comedy by David K Barnes…is properly funny. Birthday Suit is a mercilessly tense piece of writing that clashes Noel Coward with Edward Albee to
quite profound effect.’
