Reviews
- "A rare production of a 70s Pinter play with some of the landmark names of South Australian theatre behind it. This Theatre Guild show is a hot ticket. No Man's Land, most particularly is a vehicle for two very strong mature actors – to which end Michael Baldwin and John Edge come into their own. They are Adelaide's Gielgud and Richardson. It is a wonderment of words and timing … In the Guild’s hands, it is utterly engrossing and surprisingly funny. No Man's Land goes down as another vivid feather in the UATG's very well-adorned cap”
- Samela Harris, Barefoot Review - “Ardent, discerningly paced and boasting indomitable performances, No Man's Land is a marvellous production. It is a joy to watch the two cohorts- the creepy hippy Foster (Matt Houston) and the looming leather clad Briggs (Jonathan Pheasant)...A rich, thrilling work that is splendidly original filled with wit and structured so ingeniously that figuring out where the story is headed is half the fun.”
- Stephen Davenport, InDaily - “An experienced and knowledgeable director, together with a supremely talented cast...the UATG has all the elements just right with its superb production. Jonathan Pheasant is terrific, Set Design by Max Mastrosavas is brilliant. With its fine direction by Warwick Cooper, magnificent performances and wonderful staging, you would be mad to miss this Guild production.”
- Lesley Reed, Stage Whispers - “No Man's Land is well worth the trip to the Little Theatre”
- Janice Bailey, Encore - “Michael Baldwin and John Edge are simply marvellous together...Matt Houston and Jonathan Pheasant are another great double act. The result is a first class production...early booking is essential!”
