Gissane Sophia

Marvelous Geeks Media

Ian Ebright’s The Way We Speak is significant in its means of brutally reminding viewers of why our words matter. It’s outright cruel at times, a little slow, and yet intricately thoughtful in how it chooses character remarks.

Peter Gray

The AU Review

A talky, compelling drama that speaks to the power of one’s conviction in their beliefs and, more importantly, respecting another’s differing opinion.

Rated: 4/5

Robert Horton

The Crop Duster

Fabian is terrific here. He sprays the dialogue around with abandon, and he has the on-his-toes balance of an athlete. In this role, you never doubt Simon’s need for validation, nor his buzzy self-regard.

Rated: 3/4

Anne Brodie

What She Said

A serious narcissist stymied by his own actions is searingly, painfully real. Fabian’s Simon is loathsome and he’s the lead – are we meant to identify or feel empathy for him? Quite the feat for an actor; a stellar, memorable even risky piece of work

Rated: 4/4
