Opening Night Audience Review
"Under Marcus Oborn’s direction, brilliant eye and ear for performance and creativity, this play delivers a real punch. Like a choreographed battle between warriors, a tragic dance ebbing and flowing, it’s a piece that is constantly driving forward to an ending you know can’t be pretty. Combined with the moving, and cleverly composed music that accompanies the entire play sending goose bumps along your arms and legs (literally), the simple, yet clever and very effective costume design, set on a warehouse stage with high ceilings worthy of such large emotions and such a tale - all tie together to bring home a truly captivating performance.
