Underpinning the action is deliciously sharp banter.
The Evening Standard
Nikolai Foster's beautifully acted revival is totally attuned to the play's swirling mix of emotion and hilarity. This generous, optimistic play remains a beautiful little thing.
The Guardian
A yearning sweetness and a kind of tough innocence...the charm of Beautiful Thing remains remarkably well preserved.
