'George Riley is the man who invented indoor rain...from the moment he sweeps into his local announcing that he has left home forever with nothing but a toothbrush and a ten-bob note, he imposes the authority of his fantasy not only on the audience, but on the regulars who have heard the same declaration of independence every Saturday for years. He imposes it by language, the gorgeous comic rhetoric of a talent so transparently theatrical that it must have been born in a trunk...he is a splendid full-fledged comic creation...If we hadn't already seen ROsencrantz and Guildenstern we'd be hailing Enter a Free Man as the liveliest debut for years.' - Ronald Bryden, Observer
