“Stylish and stylistically challenging work. . . . A riveting and explosively physical performance.”

Irish Times

“Breathtaking.”

Theatre in Wales

“The struggle is fierce, suspenseful, and genuinely surprising in its outcome.”

Theatre in Wales

“A gem of concise, meaningful new drama which deserves to be seen more widely as an illustration of the sort of theatre Wales is capable of producing.”

Gill Ogden, Aberystwyth Arts Centre

“Erasing traditional Western dichotomies of body and mind, emotion and intellect, Hermann Nitsch’s work [and] the plays of Howard Barker, Sarah Kane and David Ian Rabey [share] an obsession with sexualised violence and sacrifice, calling attention to both their contemporaneity and status as the basis of ancient and tragic rituals of radical, catastrophic experiences. The more one opens oneself to these texts and performances, the paler seems most contemporary theatre (often paling to complete nothingness); images and texts linger in the imagination long after the direct experience. And all of them are quite of this time and this world . . .  the plays of those theatre practitioners mentioned above [are] not for the faint of heart or mind, nor for the weak of stomach. Others, however, will be moved.”
