Leslie Rees said "The play was an overstocked paddock, sprawling and hinting at too many thorny questions, but never dull like its title. The author had a witty and pointed as well as savage line in dialogue,... The characters were recognizably real, even if the story-line was not strong."[5]
The Sydney Morning Herald said "the play is not a good one and was made no better by the performance."[6][7]
