Reviews

'Powerfully intense... sits at the sharp end of the capital punishment question'

* Guardian *

'A stark 60 minutes of staccato poetry... [an] entirely absorbing drama'

* Evening Standard *

'Stark, probing... poised and poetic, with such pitch-black humour that laughs pop like gasps in reverse'

* WhatsOnStage *

'A taut, measured piece about the nature of justice and revenge... you find yourself, at the blackout, holding your breath'

* The Stage *

'Stunning... a fascinating, gripping piece that examines revenge, suffering and human frailties'

* Huffington Post *
