Guardian
"Little Platoons is an engrossing state-of-the-nation play about a contemporary issue that is unlikely to go away"
The Arts Desk
In these wretched days of the end-game of the welfare state, the Bush's terrific two-play Schools Season is both a shot in the arm and a knife in the heart...Waters perceptively captures the ages-old clash of political idealism and personal needs...There are superb performances all round in Nathan Curry's sparky production
FOUR STARS
Evening Standard
I can't recall a more urgently satirical local play at this address in all the wonderful 38 years of its existence...Waters is a dab hand at needling dialogue, nabbing public sector good intentions, and nailing false aspirations with the very best of them, and they include David Hare.
