Greatly enjoyed the live play at the park theatre. This production is also very good and a very interesting story for those interested in d-day.

Great performance of one of the most important times in our history. I've seen the show twice, it was great to revisit it through audio.

This audio-play of Pressure is amazing. I’m really grateful something like this exists as I am preparing to perform in a production of Pressure myself. The actors were really captivating and the soundtrack was really atmospheric. I was totally immersed in this story and I would recommend it to anyone who likes audio-plays.

A great resource for play preparation!
