“If you value freedom and democracy, do not miss The Wages of Spin.”
Peter Wilkins, The Canberra Times, 22/7/05

“As a reminder of how we’ve arrived at this most culpable of moments in our national history, where there are no excuses, and as a model of multimedia performance, The Wages of Spin is mandatory viewing”
Keith Gallasch, RealTime 68, August/September 2005

“Make no mistake about this production. It is a most divisive and revealing event … Version 1.0 make challenging theatre with an integrity that cuts across traditional left and right wing boundaries” Joe Woodward, The Canberra Review, 28/7/05

“This is a great show: witty, clever, lively and provocative. ... Version 1.0 – whose CMI (A Certain Maritime Incident) last year was one of the most interesting and provocative responses to the Tampa and the sinking of SIEV X events - is doing a new type of political theatre that is based in serious research but is also mocking, subversive and fun.”
John McCallum, The Australian, 23/5/05
