What is the author's style in Rites by Maureen Duffy?

Duffy commented in her introduction that the play was deliberately "pitched between fantasy and naturalism." The public lavatory in which the play is set is "as real as in a vivid dream." The realistic elements in the play are many and include the setting. This kind of public lavatory, with its malfunctioning toilets, graffiti-covered walls, and lingering derelict, can be found in most cities. The relationships between the characters, such as Ada and Meg (Meg's admiration of Ada; Ada's slightly amused tolerance of Meg), form another realistic element. The three office girls, with their superficial banter, will be familiar to anyone who has worked in a London office. There is realism too in the mundane things the characters discuss, the clichés they use, and the fully believable kinds of lives they describe.
