A fine example of theatre at its small-scale best.Evening Standard

Titanic
Owen McCaffertys rigorous verbatim play provides an antidote to Titanic fatigue... Two months of hearings from 97 witnesses are whittled down to nine... What remains, even after a century, is a disturbing sense of moral ambiguity: 1, 517 dead and no one to blame.Guardian

The most powerful theatrical production I have had the privilege of seeing... McCaffertys script is perfectly taut... This play is extraordinary and completely unmissable.Metro Herald

McCafferty writes with empathy and a wry humour that makes for an absorbing - if painful - hour.Financial Times

Owen McCafferty is a sly observer of the human heart.Guardian

Death of a Comedian
Despite the humour, McCaffertys play is a tragedy. his most accomplished work to date.Belfast Telegraph
