Description

Gabriel:

'A richly themed, enthralling new play.' The Times

Silence (winner of the Susan Smith Blackburn award):

'Silence is a beaut. Buffini is deliciously skilled at crafting lines.' Financial Times

Loveplay:

'Delightfully quirky, funny and touching. A hit if ever I saw one. Buffini has an appetite for history, and the most beguiling of dramatic voices.' Daily Telegraph

Dinner:

'A cracking black comedy that has you laughing uproariously one moment and jumping with shock the next . . . Dinner offers a delicious feast of comedy at its most heartless and macabre.' Daily Telegraph

Blavatsky's Tower:

'A refreshingly dizzying perspective on that cornerstone of dysfunction - the family.' Time Out

'A truly remarkable play. Buffini is a startingly original voice and an outstanding talent.' What's On
