"Images will recur in your nightmares for years to come."

-The List

"A fine psychological thriller, enthralling... an evening of compelling nastiness."

-Daily Telegraph

"an intense and compelling piece of theatre, largely thanks to very strong work from Amy Humphreys and Mark Fleischman. Humphreys skilfully shifts emotional gear from despair to a kind of masochistic flirtatiousness, while Fleischman makes your skin crawl with his wheedling self-justifications and passivity...an excellent two hander that stands out because of its fine, and eerie, central performances. Fleischman’s self-pitying voice will haunt your sleep for some time to come, while Humphrey’s growing frustration and fear leave a deep impression."
