"The play has bite, anger and tenacity and many of its arguments are true...the supreme merit of Ms Daniels' combative work is that it makes me want to argue back" ~ Michael Billington, Guardian
Neaptide looks at lesbianism and prejudice - "A lacerating wit" ~ City Limits, whilst Byrthrite is set in the 17th century, at the point when the role of the healer was taken over by the male profession of doctor, it examines the implications and dangers of reproductive technology
"Daniels puts her case with vigour and wit" ~ Financial Times
