It's so fast and furious, it's almost exhausting...any show that makes a Tuesday evening feel like a Friday night has to be a potential group outing! ,rn. What's On , ,rv. It's the most fun any of us are likely to have in court anytime soon... ,rn. Left Lion , ,rv. A fast-moving courtroom farce with enough one-liners and inventive changes to keep the show upbeat to the end. ,rn. The Stage
