★★★★★ Happy Now
An evening of immersive, hilarious, bitter-sweet theatre in Guildford.
The cast are excellent without exception. The anchor character of the whole play, Kitty, is played by Samantha Remnant with tremendous vigour and sensitivity. This is a brilliant play, commissioned for and first produced at the National Theatre in London. Gilly Fick’s direction and the Guildburys creative staging team and excellent actors have given us a memorable production of it here in Guildford.

NODA South East Reviewer Jane Turner
This was a thoroughly enjoyable, lighthearted but poignant, story of two couples caught up in the mundane business of working and raising a family, coping with the pressures of relationships and supporting each other and their friends. The script was quietly humorous from the start. The first thing to say is that it was brilliantly cast. Scenery shifts were minimal, the slick changes carried out mostly by the cast, moving from one house or venue to another. The layout was very clever, each one merging into the next, with genuine period furniture. Ingenuous.
