Reviews:
USE ONCE AND DESTROY
'...this show marks another step in Douglas' emergence as a major new voice in British Playwriting', Joyce McMillan - The Scotsman.

FLY
'For a young writer, Douglas has already discovered the power of leaving things unsaid. She hooks the emotional heart of a situation and reels it in with dialogue as taut as a straining finishing line.' The Guardian, 4 stars.
