Labour of Love review - light, political and nostalgic
Labour of Love is ideal West End fodder: light, political and nostalgic. It's not great comedy, but it's a good play and perfectly performed.
Tim Bano, The Stage, 4th October 2017Labour of Love: valid and valiant response
It possibly ranks as one of Tamsin Greig's finest hours, even if this isn't James Graham's - the script contains a handful of the most laboured gags you'll hear outside the perimeters of the party conferences, the sitcom-ish second scene urgently needs fixing and poor Rachael Stirling as Lyons's unsupportive wife is saddled with the sort of horsey, stuck-up stereotype even Class War would find lacking in nuance. Not a landmark theatrical victory, at the final count, but valid and valiant all the same.
Dominic Cavendish, The Telegraph, 4th October 2017Labour of Love review
Above all, it's a play about love - of party, friends, country - and it's testament to Labour that despite an impressively long history of self-destruction, you can't for a second imagine a play like this being written about the other lot. Raise the scarlet standard high!
