Reviews

A palpably intelligent [play] that proves ... that Prebble is one of the long line of dramatists who view medical practice with a rational scepticism. * Guardian * What makes The Effect so special is that as well as being a play of ideas, it is also deeply moving, both in its depiction of the giddy wonder of love, and also in its account of the terrifying wasteland of depression itself. * Daily Telegraph *
