starstarstarstarstartotally agree only one set but a great one the detail was amazing , the acting too was excellent really believed the characters , i saw this on tour and was less then half full which was a shame .. funny & dark shocked us all - rob g04 Aug 11
starstarstarstarstarsome fantastic technical acting on display here by the whole cast, I would argue that it wasn't a full working kitchen, that gas hob looked like a blue light to me but I could be wrong. Go see it and find out for yourself :) - Alex02 Aug 11
starstarstarstarThis is a very dark comedy, superbly acted. It switches from funny to tender to sadistic in moments, and the story being told is one so many of us will recognise - it gave me so much to think about. Anyone who manages to get a working kitchen onstage has my admiration, and the set is the perfect backdrop to 4 great performances. - Caroline Beckett02 Aug 11
