Funny, important & moving...all at once a fond rallying cry for the importance of the NHS, a rebuttal to the damaging culture of shame and silence surrounding the kind of illnesses you can't bring up at the dinner table, and some brilliant character comedy from Richardson, a talented performer with real verve... a show with as much heart as guts, as much about being well as being ill. It's about the privilege of having a body that does what we want it to - one that can be used, unthinkingly, to live.
