★★★★  “Director Fidelis Morgan pulls out all the stops in this lavish and starry production… If it is an undiscovered gem you are looking for But It Still Goes On really fits the bill.”  London Pub Theatres

★★★★  “The Finborough has boldly gone where others have feared to tread and its bravery has been rewarded. Its production, directed with aplomb by Fidelis Morgan, fizzes like a newly opened bottle of vintage champagne. Farce, anger, jealousies, tragedy, sexual frisson and innuendo sit alongside each other… Another Finborough triumph. The cast is quite extraordinary”   Close-Up Culture

★★★★  “The cast is strong across the board. Alan Cox is sharply witty,  wicked and playful.”  The Spy In the Stalls
