On Last Ditch: This beautiful, dark, urgent and driven play explores and pushes the boundaries of both language and stagecraft. Its rage against unchallenged authority and uncontested privilege is genuine and necessary, as are, thankfully, its insistence on the primacy and salvation of love and respect. - Niall Griffiths

David Ian Rabey's plays fairly zip along, dancing between myth and modernity, laced with high ideals, fine poetry and pitch-dark jokes. Watching them on the stage, I was moved, amused, and horrified in equal measure. - Mike Parker

Rabey's theatre is not a stage but a space, bare and uncompromised. He peoples it with figures 'on edge', in what feels like a dystopian future but very soon becomes visible as our Now, exposed. - David Rudkin

The mysterious music of the writing [is] arresting and enthralling, an imaginative tour de force that addresses our own dangerous times and all the times to come. - Patricia Duncker
