Georg Szalai, Hollywood Reporter, 29th February 2024Douglas Is Cancelled interviews
Steven Moffat began working on Douglas Is Cancelled in 2018, before most people - Moffat included - had even heard of the term "cancel culture." It was only later he realised his story - about a distinguished news anchor whose life is turned upside down when an unguarded comment goes viral - exemplified it.
K. J. Yossman, Variety, 26th February 2024Review: The Unfriend
Lee Mack and Frances Barber excel in Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat's comedy.
Gabriel Curteis, A Young(ish) Perspective, 12th January 2024The Unfriend review
Returning to the West End after a successful run last year, Steven Moffat's seriously silly play dispels the Winter blues with its excruciating comedy of manners.
Claire Roderick, Fairy Powered Productions, 11th January 2024The Unfriend review
Perhaps because it is created by a writer of the calibre of Moffatt, there are high expectations for the play, yet, ironically giving how much Moffatt can twist a tale, the stakes are never raised high enough, it all feels a little safe.
Paul T Davies, BritishTheatre.com, 11th January 2024The Unfriend review
The Unfriend is a perfect night out at the theatre if what you need is uncontrollable laughter. You'll not only chuckle your heart out, but also be invested in an expertly written comic storyline that is a must-see.
James Robertson, The Reviews Hub, 11th January 2024The Unfriend review
Lee Mack is in his element in Steven Moffat's comedy of manners.
Olivia Rook, London Theatre, 11th January 2024Review: The Unfriend
The comedy of embarrassment returns, but wastes much of its talents on a script that gets its share of laughs but never quite adds up.
