Reader Reviews:


4/5 stars

Very funny, although I only saw the play (3/7 people found this helpful)

A great satire of money grabbing business. Good storyline, funny dialogues and well thought out characters. You've seen the play, now get the book.

4/5 stars

Gasping - a fast, funny adult comedy (8/13 people found this helpful)

Gasping is a satiricial play that takes a sharp stab with a pointy stick at the British Corporate world. In a story about environmental responsibility and social equality, Elton uses Aristocratic foppishness to turn an otherwise frightening scenario into a hilarious and thought provoking piece.

Gasping is fast, witty, 'in-your-face' and filled with willy jokes - particularly in reference to elephants.

If you get the opportunity to see Gasping performed... do.

(David Higgins - I play Phillip)
