'BRILLIANT' Julie Burchill, The Times
'Gritty....Brutal... Moving... the best gay play in years' Gay.com
'I was blown away. This is possibly the most moving and engrossing gay play since Beautiful Thing.' Mark St Andrews, Boyz
'Full marks to Matthew Todd who offers a refreshingly comic take on the difficulties of being gay and romantic. One ends up hoping that the play, like the kid, gets picked up by someone kind, considerate and loaded. It deserves a longer life.' Dominic Cavendish, Daily Telegraph
'Blowing Whistles is failsafe entertainment' Jonathan Gibbs, Time Out
'Matthew Todd's brilliant play Blowing Whistles... this play is so fantastically tough and tender that it often feels as if someone has got you in a painful arm-lock, only to give you the sweetest, softest kiss.' Julie Burchill, The Times
'Ten years ago 'Closer' shredded straight sex with the fury of a serial killer and now with Blowing Whistles the gay scene's caught up. If there's one play this year that cries out for a West End transfer this is it'
Sasha Selavie QX magazine
Jamie Hakim, 3-Sixty Magazine
'It's about love, actually. The fact that it's a homosexual and not heterosexual relationship doesn't make it any less dramatic or moving.' Croydon Advertiser
'One of the best gay plays to be premiered in years.. I actually shed a tear' Gay.com 'Hysterical. Matthew Todd is a one man gay cultural revolution with Wildean wit running through his veins. The buzz around this is almost deafening so booking early is advised.'
'wholly engaging and remarkably astute.. By all accounts, as a gay play it's unparalleled.' Mark Hill - Theatre Critic, South London Press Rainbownetwork.com 'a wry, perceptive and very funny take on what gay pride means' The Times 'Controversial, sexy and very, very funny' Attitude
