“I loved this piece, I found it exhilarating and rather scary........ I love the way the show deals with (and satirises) so many aspects of contemporary life, with such a light touch, and the way the atmosphere stays ambivalent right to the end. Every time I laughed I felt guilty. Not many performances can get you feeling so good and so uncomfortable at the same time.”

Clive Bell (The Wire)
