The Inconvenience Of Wings

“most excellent play …grips you and takes you all the way”
-Daily Maverick

“If there is a better piece of theatre at the Festival, please lead me to it … It is a piece that no serious theatre lover should miss … Be there, and tot up the number of awards for which it will be nominated, most of which it will win. It's that good.”
â€" John Maytham, Cape Talk

“… masterful direction … the casts’ acutely magnificent performance … the actors who provided an engrossing, consumate performance. This play belies its genre with moments of symbolism and seduce us to contemplate situations and emotions from which many of us are thankfully removed, the intricacy and delicacy of which is strengthened to invulnerable proportions thanks to the vitality of its portrayal."
â€" Steve Kretzmann, Critter

“Again, I take my hat off to Foot. She gets it, she truly, deeply, gets it across in this most excellent play … once you get into the meat of the story it grips you and takes you all the way.”
- Tony Jackman, Daily Maverick

Andrew Buckland stars in Lara Foot's powerful and poignant drama about friendship, dysfunction, addiction and angels. His wife, Sara, is diagnosed with bipolar disorder: she is compulsive, alive and hates women who know how to make cupcakes. Cape Times wrote, 'it is a piece that no serious theatre lover should miss.
