Reception
The Sydney Morning Herald called it a "rather banal sketch" which was "well put together and the dialogue often amusing" with "smooth performances".[4]
The Age said it "emphasised the fact that it is not enough for a writer to have an idea. He must know and be able to employ necessary techniques that will be able him to carry it out. This was indeed a theme that required sparkling dialogue and an effective, if light, satiric touch. It missed out because these were just the things it lacked."[5]
