Trade Review

'Provocative and startling… I was mesmerised'

* Evening Standard *

'Exquisitely atmospheric… [has] a black humour that resonates far off, like the mad laughter of the cosmos'

* Time Out *

'Many plays confront death. A few deal with the process of dying. Caryl Churchill's new work manages, in 45 minutes, to encompass both. It not only confirms her ability to experiment with dramatic form but, more importantly, acts as a chilling reminder of our own mortality... a striking memento mori for an age without faith'

* Observer *

'This is unforgettable. You feel as though you've aged a decade as the light gradually fades'
