Miller and Moore Presents will go close to being the best new local production in this category for Fringe 2011. The script is well worked, the use of the stage imaginative bordering on the inspired, the supporting videos great fun and credible and all four actors do an excellent job. 4.5K

Flawless performances by both O’Grady and Hay make this play well worth supporting, especially as the entire crew have connections of one sort or another to Adelaide tertiary drama centres. 3.5K
