Reviews
"""Bernhard's dialogue already evokes so stirringly and with such cliche free precision what it feels like to live in the shadow of the Holocaust"" - Robert Shore> - The Metro ""What is initially strange continues to be strange, but the sheer strangeness becomes mesmerising, and then marvellous... Deftly translated by Meredith Oakes and Andres Tierney"" - Jeremy Kingston, The Times "" - it is as much an absurdist comedy as a piece of toxic rhetoric - this is an important European play that pins down a particularly fearful moment in Austrian history with ferocious elan."" - Michael Billington, The Guardian,"
