‘Her’ is an impressive production. Over the space of an hour we were transported through a variety of different catch-22 scenarios a young women in a place affected by war is likely to face. The production dealt with these sensitively, but without shying away from the terrible realities millions of girls face worldwide. It is an engaging and educational production, and I would strongly recommend other young audiences have an opportunity to see it.’
