REVIEWS

... camp fingertips extend into salutes... Luttley’s spiked fan routine is as sharp as any instrument of torture, and Rosalind Ford’s CIA striptease neatly illustrates underhand American tactics
— Matt Trueman, WhatsOnStage
 
... torture looks very much like the old music hall trick of sawing a lady in half... A brilliant second act number, The School of Americas, delivered by Rosalind Ford’s CIA agent doing a stars-and-stripes strip show, makes the US’s support of the murderous regime clear.
— Lyn Gardner, The Guardian
