‘Kinevane moves, in a striking performance under Jim Culleton’s effective direction, with the elegance of a dancer and the engaged poise of a boxer. It’s a startling combination...the caress of poetry and the disarming direct address of stand-up...a moving story, which, until its end, pulses with the erratic noise of life.’
Irish Times
‘beautiful, compelling, heartbreaker of a show.’
Belfast Telegraph
‘sensational...amazing.’
