AFTER INTIMACY

“Gray gives a natural and absorbing performance as Rirette, disregarding any compassion and creating a cold, selfish character.”
- JEREMY AUSTIN, THE STAGE

“Eva Gray as Rirette and Vicki Carpenter as Lulu extend their characters with vibrancy and style, as they closet themselves in Bacchanalian luxury amidst the devastation.”
- JULIA HICKMAN, THEATREWORLD

“Carpenter is quite outstanding as the apolitical, empty-headed but kindly Lulu, as is Eva Gray as the opportunist Rirette. “
- JOHN COURTNEY O’CONNOR, MORNING STAR

“This sumptuously designed drama evokes the spirit of wartime Paris through songs, parodies, anecdotes and glimpses of social history... The production is perfectly assured.”
- LLOYD EVANS, THE SPECTATOR

“Selfish, sexually rampant and determinedly unpoliticised - even in Paris under the Vichy regime... Michael Almaz's 'After Intimacy' responds to Sartre's exploration of human freedom and suffering in the philosopher's lesser known work 'Intimacy'.”
- RACHEL HALLIBURTON, TIME OUT
