A beautiful show that is extremely relatable. Two Friends and Social Anxiety is written incredibly well - the performers' honesty, openness and vulnerability make their performance incredibly powerful. It excellently delivers what the title promises - a window into social anxiety in the most heartfelt and gentle way: it is very clearly able to show the struggle that so many of us have to deal with. I can't wait to see what's next for this wonderful show!!

Very cleverly written and brought to life, with witty dialogue woven delicately around important and emotive matters. This show is a thought-provoking and encouraging musing on mental health matters, at once both entertaining and intelligent. Well worth a watch!

Poignant and relatable in many ways, for anyone has suffered the woes of social anxiety. The acting is not overdone, it’s just right and takes you on the mental journey that is typically left unseen, unheard but very real.
For anyone cognisant of their social anxiety: the representation and validation feel wonderful.
For anyone new to the topic: the play will give you (a lot!) more empathy for your anxious friends.
Anyway, go see it for yourselves!
