U.A. Fanthorpe and R.V. Bailey on ‘Lunch at the Poet’s House’ – “a splendid send-up of poetic pretension.  The tone of reverence, the exact choice and placing of words, the economy of it – all these things work together brilliantly.  Enjoy it, as we did.” (Mslexia)

 Amanda Craig on ‘The Slight Departure of the Featherworth Ladies’ Choral Society’ –  “Jolliest and most Betjemanesque is ‘The Slight Departure of the Featherworth Ladies’ Choral Society’, by Jennifer Moore, which made me laugh aloud. I loved the idea of all these ladies turning away from conventional songs into wilder and wilder song (and even the dance of the ‘Seventeen Veils/ with full nudity and strobe lighting effects’) before returning primly to the last sentence, ‘Tea and biscuits will be available during the interval.’ It was like seeing Calendar Girls in verse.” (Mslexia)
