I need to see it.

I’m sorry you were disappointed in this play. There were problems with it. I thought It was underwritten and a little episodic, Monica too perfect, the policeman too facetious. However I found nuggets of truth which struck a chord with me. Perhaps because I’m working class myself, I could relate very much to James Corden’s character and his disintegration brought tears to my eyes. I was left with the thought that we live in this strange system which creates more and more broken people - and MPs throwing breadcrumbs at them is just not working anymore.

more episodic than a regular play structure?
