Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Pleasance Grand.
This is a slick and technically brilliant production. If the star scale goes to five, I’d give them seven for imaginative design and direction. Matthew Lenton uses a range of tricks to bring this nightmare fairytale for adults to glorious life. Sandy Grierson is disturbing as the man with a secret; the four other performers work excellently to show us his dreams becoming reality. Definitely worth a ticket – I’ll be going back!
