REVIEWS:

"Powerfully intense... sits at the sharp end of the capital punishment question."

 The Guardian

"A stark 60 minutes of staccato poetry… [an] entirely absorbing drama."

 Evening Standard

"Stark, probing… poised and poetic, with such pitch-black humour that laughs pop like gasps in reverse."

 WhatsOnStage

"A taut, measured piece about the nature of justice and revenge… you find yourself, at the blackout, holding your breath."

 The Stage

"Stunning… a fascinating, gripping piece that examines revenge, suffering and human frailties."

 Huffington Post
