People Say

"...the production brings together some fascinating and at times conflicting elements in what is ultimately a superb show...
(Sarah McNeill, The Subiaco Post,)

"...Richardson cleverly weaves modern theatrical elements into this story...and manages to put this timeless tale into a modern context, both with her fascinating contemporary staging of the play and by placing some of the peripheral characters in modern roles....Richardson has also made excellent use of the flexible theatre space at PICA...a fascinating piece of theatre, with excellent performances from all the cast..."(Pier Leach, The West Australian)
