“Smart writing with a deft comic touch that [David] Whitney has the charisma to sustain” – The Stage

“Deborah Espect demonstrates a good ear for laughs and delivers a dark comedy with a killer twist. A well-worked end-piece to a promising curtains-up for the festival” – The Stage

Jonathan Lennie’s 15-minute radio play “Webern and Me” was performed at the Spring Festival and will be broadcast as part of a series, “Classical Assassins”, which Jonathan developed through joinedupwriters. The series can be heard on Radio 4 from 23rd – 27th October
