BBZ (Berliner Lehrerzeitung) 2016
In Platypus Theater's "Between the Lines" schoolbooks come to life. They look like normal people, they retain their english text book character but they are headstrong and incapable of taking action. They smuggle themselves into a suitcase, secretly follow its owner who actually wants to have a break from books. They do crazy things in a New York Hotel thereby ensuring that the audience is entertained and playfully convey over and over again vocabulary, idioms, figures of speech and information. All in all, a huge amount of Theater fun-utile et dulce-follow the good old tradition of combining the useful with the pleasant.
Zitty 2015
".. a great opportunity for a reality check which sparks of comedy in Scollins' funny bilingual play..."
Berliner Zeitung 2015
To sum up: An entertaining play with a great educational effect.
