Derek Smith [Musical Theatre Review) wrote:

"The opening rousing ‘Song of the Hired Men’, then ‘Fill It to the Top’, make for one of the most stirring opening ten minutes of any musical I’ve seen, and the company’s sheer physicality and obvious passion is quite something to witness in the compact and perfectly suited St James Theatre."

"This is a remarkably polished and confident production from director Nikolai Foster and from such a young cast – even Seth Tallentire’s whippet, played by Jarvis, took his brief, cameo role in his four-legged stride. It’s a real pity only six performances are planned. I’m guessing Jarvis has other work lined up – I’m sure most of this talented cast has."
