REVIEWS:
"The extraordinary thing about Love Upon the Throne is that it pulls off the impossible: it is extremely funny without being offensive. And this is because, beneath the jokes... it is a melancholy modern history play."
Observer
"Grateful tears of laughter coursed down my cheek... Pure joy."
The Guardian
"The show achieves real brilliance."
