Reception
The musical received mixed reviews. Patricia Maunder in Limelight said that "although it doesn’t entirely work, unlike some more toe-tapping musicals for which the pleasure is essentially in the moment, this new offering from Phillips and Finn keeps on tugging at one’s brain and heart after it’s over."[2] Giselle Au-Nhien Nguyen in The Guardian said that "with some moments of great humour and strong performances, it’s an entertaining enough way to spend a couple of hours, if not disappointing given the pedigree of its team."[3] Kate Herbert in The Age concluded the musical was "a courageous, but ultimately unsatisfying show that, with more development, could reach its potential."[4]
