Not a production for the faint hearted or anyone who has an aversion to standing for an hour or so, as this scary offering by Slung Low requires your full attention and cooperation to be successful.
The action takes place against the backdrop of Milo McKenzie’s book launch for his latest graphic novel, They Only Come at Night. The audience are the VIP guests at the launch, enjoying the complimentary snacks and generally milling around the Studio space. There are various ‘staff’ members encouraging the ‘guests’ to provide details of their next of kin, blood type and even offering a free blood type checking service for those who are unsure what their blood type is.

Having experienced 'It Felt like a Kiss' at Manchester International Festival I confess I was filled with expectation for this interactive performance. The write up really gears you for a scary and exciting experience but it disappointed on all levels. This could have been so much better. The dialogue was difficult to hear and hard to follow and half way through I was starting to feel detached from the performance. We were asked what blood group we were which was a nice touch at the start but then nothing came of it. I had expected us to get split up with our blood groups etc. As the comments made before, I was surprised and let down when leaving the of the room, half hoping something else would happen. The Vampires were pretty dismal and most of the audience were laughing by the end. I did like the use of tv screens and the last sequence was cool, they could have really made alot more use of that, more vampires peering in at us, more attacks on the outside, all would have added more interest for the audience. As it was we had packets of Burger King salt thrown at us. I wish Slung Low luck but with other production companies creating far more impressive and thought provoking Theatre they may want to up their game....
