Critical reception
The Independent found it "intriguing, richly researched but underpowered"; while The Daily Telegraph noted "A quiet, but highly topical, masterpiece...clever and engaging...the skill of the play is that it doesn’t make you think; it lets you think"; and The Times found it "Fascinating...it feels as if we have been given a magic window to see what really happened to Lawrence after Arabia."
