Reiss's Forty-Five Minutes ... a fine play ... Pearson's Ailie and the Alien ... touching ... Harvey's Tomorrow I'll Be Happy ... homosexuality - a tricky subject - is handled bravely ... no less stylish is Lenny Henry's (say-no-to-knives) Soundclash ... Craig's We Lost Elijah ... a compelling, spicy plot ... Mobile Phone Show ... an ebullient sequence of overlapping vignettes ... Howard Brenton's The Guffin examines the potential for evil of the creative mind. It's the most mysterious and ambitious play here ... What Are They Like? ... a wise play, well-formed -- Alexander Gilmour * Financial Times * The National Theatre Connections 2013: make theatre New Plays for Young People should be called the Big Book of Youth Plays as it has so many plays of such a wide variety that it could keep you busily in production for years . . . In addition to the good quality scriptwriting in all ten of the Making Connections plays, the make theatre book has notes from the author on rehearsal and staging . . . Some of the language in some of the plays is hard hitting, some of it funny or poignant but all of the plays have the same thing in common, they have a modern relevance that will allow them to resonate with young actors and enhance their skills, providing an infinite variety of inspiration! -- Fiona Quinn * Youth Drama Ireland *
