Reviews

UK Theatre Web: 04May01:
I came and saw the play on Thursday and I thought it was fantastic. It was the first time I had seen Brecht and I particularly enjoyed the fact that everything was on show. Very enjoyable evening

UK Theatre Web: 06Mar01:
Amasing piece of theatre that leaves you questioning and invigorated. Impossible to sleep through (volunteers are required) and the pre-show is a must. Lynn Ferguson displays great skill and courage.
