So proud of Sam. Neither of us would be anywhere without this play; for it to have this kind of life and reach is a mad and amazing thing. Almost eight years ago…

[Walrus @WalrusTheatre]

Get along to this little gem of a play from @LucyRoslyn, which steals into the heart by cover of two profoundly deft and delicate performances. Produced with customary care by @JessieAnand, it’s a kind of 80-minute (air-conned!) oasis.

It’s only bloody OFFIE WINNER NICK DAY

[Ed Madden @edwmadden]

The beautiful screenplay for MORNING is by theatre’s very own Sam Steiner, who is wisely not on Twitter but should have this massive news shouted about. His writing for film is as bold, distinctive and humane as his work for the stage, and I am so proud of him.

What a cracking way to end the year — thanks to @WhatsOnStage for including YELLOWFIN on this list! We’re not sure what the future holds for the show, but we’d love to do it again, so cross your fingers and watch this space…

16 shows we want to see return to the stage in 2022 https://t.co/OlPWBYzaoP

[Walrus @WalrusTheatre]

YELLOWFIN is one of @TDS153’s picks of the year for @BBCFrontRow: “[a] great production, beautifully done… There was just the simple excitement of getting back into a small theatre and seeing how much excitement you can cram into that small space.” A fishy, festive surprise!

[Walrus @WalrusTheatre]

Very flattered to see YELLOWFIN among @AvaWongDavies’ favourite culture of 2021, alongside some really beautiful shows, films, novels and music. Safe to say, Nick Day has our heart, too. https://t.co/g857J2FwSE

[Walrus @WalrusTheatre]

Ace to see a mention for YELLOWFIN in the @TeleTheatre end-of-year round-up: we were a “rare glimpse of that vanishing species: the play of ideas.” Crack open a can of tuna and think of us!

[Jessie Anand Productions @jessieproduces]

One week since #Yellowfin closed.

Thank you for the laughs, @edwmadden, @MarekHorn et al. 💛

[Ed Madden @edwmadden]

So, that was YELLOWFIN. Six years since @MarekHorn sent me a draft of his play, and a year since @JessieAnand’s first attempt to get it on was scuppered by the dreaded. And all for the good — it mightn’t have been half the pleasure without this team. Their work is mighty.

[Lucy Jane Atkinson @lucypapoosky]

I am still reeling from #Yellowfin @swkplay this weekend. @MarekHorn, @edwmadden & @jessieproduces created something spectacular. Truly one of the best new plays I’ve seen in the past 5 years, Every beat, line, set, LX, sound, costume, and acting choice was perfect. I want more.

[Joseph Winer @JosephWiner]

Yellowfin was just superb. Phenomenal writing, astute direction, delivered by a cast that has you clinging to the tips of every sentence. Poss one of my favourite new plays ever??

[Daniel Evans @DanielGwynEvans]

A bumper day. #Yellowfin @swkplay is excellent. Funny and excoriating.

[Ed Madden @edwmadden]

Today is your very last chance to catch YELLOWFIN: two performances, at 3.30pm and 8pm, both almost sold out. Proud of this one. Come for the play, stay for me having a little cry into a G&T. 🐠 https://t.co/dW4TnxKuH1

[David Shopland @davidshopland]

#Yellowfin @swkplay was EXCELLENT! @MarekHorn is one of the most exciting new voices in theatre I've heard in a while. Stunning rhythm and use of repetition. Only one night left, really urge everyone to see it! #theatre #offwestend #newwriting #play

[DONOTALIGHT @do_not_alight]

We caught Yellowfin earlier this week and trust us when we say you don’t want to miss it. @MarekHorn’s play is sharp and very funny, expertly directed by @edwmadden, and with four actors at the top of their game 🐠

[Paul Maidment @paulmaidment]

I’ve seen an awful lot of theatre this year & @marekhorn #yellowfin was terrific - brilliant cast, great writing & a ‘proper’ play with a beginning, middle & unforgettable end - loved it @swkplay

[Avye Leventis @avlev1]

Yellowfin at Southwark Playhouse is everything I hoped an @edwmadden directed show would be: whip smart, beautifully acted, and engrossing from start to (genius) end. Thank you @MarekHorn @swkplay and CATCH IT before it closes on Saturday. 🎣
