Reception
Critical response
Under the Blue Sky was received very positively from theatre critics. Louis Wise of The Sunday Times said: "Composed of three successive duologues, Under the Blue Sky is essentially a two-parter: a farcical build-up, hysterical in all senses of the word, as Helen tries to woo Nick and Michelle rejects Graham; then a cathartic release, as Anne and Robert tackle their own problematic relationship."[1]
