 | I was gripped from the start and hoping that there would not be an interval. I was not disappointed. Powerful performances from both actors;a tour de force. - MRW | 25 Oct 12 |
| Excellent production with superb acting from Anthony Andrews who gives a commanding performance and from newcomer Joshua Miles who is exceptional with a strong, assured performance. - Paul Wallis | 08 Oct 12 |
| Thoroughly gripping due to the excellent acting and superb production values...as a regular theatre attendee...it takes a lot to keep me seated with no interval!!.wow..and a great venue too..!! - Vaughan Bhagan | 06 Oct 12 |
| Can only echo the above comments. A really great piece of theatre with stunning and delicate performances from both actors. Standing ovation at the Thursday matinee is quite an achievement. Lovely venue, but house lighting too dark to read the thought-provoking programme and stairs are rather steep. Staff were great, and the menu looked good and reasonably priced. Haven't seen much coverage of this in the press. Weren't the critics invited? - DG | 05 Oct 12 |
| Excellent new play in an excellent new theatre. This part was made for Anthony Andrews and Joshua Miles in his first major role is exceptional as well and it works so well running straight through without an interval.If you don't like this give up going to the theatre. - Simon Holland | 04 Oct 12 |
| It's been a pleasure to have worked as part of the creative team on this thought provoking and well executed play. I was pleased that the reviewer mentioned the 'clever projections' - but would like to note that as projection designer I worked alongside Simon, Patrick and David in creating these - and am credited as such in the programme. - Scott Radnor | 22 Sep 12 |
| I thought this was an extraordinary play - the theme mirroring one of the Old Vic New Voices plays at the Edinburgh Fringe this summer (Glory Dazed - also excellent). The two characters had real chemistry, I think Joshua Miles is a name to look out for, and Anthony Andres' performance was one of the best I've seen. The night we went the play got (and deservedf) a standing ovation. The new theatre is pretty cool too! - Gill B | 22 Sep 12 |
| I had the good fortune to attend on opening night and what a pleasure it was. This production may inform you, it may, at times, make you laugh and it should move you. Go and see it, I doubt you'll be disappointed. - Mark | 20 Sep 12 |
