It's 5⭐️from The Guardian for Girls & Boys 👏 'Punchlines are delivered with the aplomb of a Palladium standup...(Loftus) is so winning & relatable that it’s only later you clutch at your stomach and notice you have been silently, surgically eviscerated.' www.theguardian.com/stage/2025/f...

Went to see Girls & Boys at @nottmplayhouse.bsky.social last night and it was such a punch to the gut. Dennis Kelly is such a master at drawing the audience in, winning them over and then taking the narrative where you least expect it. Well worth a visit to see.
