| Critiques: |
'Chris Loveless' staging is much
better than merely acceptable: in fact, it's a fresh, gripping and witty mini-epic.' (****Time
Out Critics' Choice) Robert Shore, Time Out London (02/01/08), on The Custom of the Country
'The stylized direction is like a finely tooled instrument so precise in its timing and detail that one is impressed to such a degree as to forget the brutality of the content. This is horror that is truly horrible but so well done.' Blanche Marvin, www.blanchemarvin.com (09/07), on Normal
'So well performed and directed that one respects both actors and director.' Blanche Marvin, www.blanchemarvin.com (09/07), on The Audition (w.i.p.)
'Completely compelling... an inventive manipulation of the structure make[s] it a
macabre treat... dead brilliant.' 'A superbly deployed directorial device ratchets up the intensity
and sense of confinement. This ambitious production achieves what it sets out to.'
