Danny and the Deep Blue Sea offers no easy answers but ultimately affirms that there is always hope. Play With Fire’s fiercely-focused, emotionally-charged production is truly compelling, and Solomon and Ellis Ryan are both excellent. One of the best things I’ve seen so far this year." - Circles and Stalls

A pair of stunning performances.." - British Theatre Guide ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ "An immensely intense and powerful piece"- North West End ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ "Drowning in despair one moment while gleefully flinging arms around each other the next.
